About me:
I was born and raised in Amsterdam, but the travel bug caught me, and now I split my time between sunny Torrevieja, Spain, and the bustling city of Dubai while traveling the world. My love for city trips started when I was 16, thanks to my mom who made it a tradition to take me to a new city every year. Since then, I've become obsessed with planning perfect trips, finding hidden gems, and hitting all the highlights without wasting any time.
For the past 10 years, I've been a tour guide, leading trips all over the world, and worked at a travel agency where I created trips. I love the planning process and the thrill of visiting a city for the first time with a well-thought-out plan in hand.
I've traveled to over 20 cities and can't wait to explore 20 more. In addition to Amsterdam, I've also lived in San Francisco, Dubai, and of course, Torrevieja. Each of these cities has given me a unique perspective and insider knowledge that I love to share.
