ABOUT ME
Hi and welcome to my Travel Guide!
I’m Beatrice, a Stockholm-based lawyer who’s constantly seeking out new adventures and food experiences, both near and far from home. My biggest passions are to plan, experience and share beautiful moments when travelling, especially in terms of awe-inspiring places and indulgent foods.
EXPERTISE
My purpose is to help you plan your dream journey. I want to inspire you to seek out adventures and beautiful experiences with loved ones, both near and far from home. I’m teaching the art of travel planning and value of doing your research. I want you to be able to maximize the quality of your experiences. I’m also here to share my own favorite travel and food experiences, as well as my best practical tips for travel and trip planning.
THERE’S NO NEED TO BREAK THE BANK TO HAVE A GREAT TRIP
One may think that having the ultimate trip is easy as long as one is prepared to spend a lot of money. Well, I’m all about making the money last and maximizing experiences without breaking the bank. One of the keys of being able to create many beautiful experiences and memories is knowing when to splurge and when to save. You don’t have to be a millionaire to have amazing trips, and there’s no need to spend excessively when travelling. The amount of money you spend is not equivalent to the quality of your trip.
This doesn’t however mean that we’ll be backpacking. Just like most of us, I love fantastic hotels, as well as indulgent food experiences. You may think of it as luxury on a budget. The focus is to identify the key elements and goals that have to be fulfilled in order for you to have your dream trip. Then, you just have to plan, save and splurge in accordance with that.
WHO AM I?
I’ve been passionate about travelling ever since I was a little girl and it’s always been a huge part of my life. I learned how to use a knife and fork while eating American Pancakes in Miami, and nothing made the little girl version of me happier than visiting my grandparents in Spain every summer, trying out new ice cream flavours every day.
Growing up, I loved being outside and enjoying the beauty of mother nature. I was a good student who spent much of my spare time playing The Sims or exploring places on Google Earth when I didn’t hang out with my friends. At the age of 15, I went on my first international solo flight to visit one of my friends from school who’d moved to New York City. That was the first trip that I planned and managed on my own. It was, however far from the last one. Since then, I’ve visited many beautiful places as well as lived in Toronto, Canada when I was in law school.
Fast forward about ten years and I’m a lawyer and a bunny mom living with my boyfriend in Stockholm, Sweden. Exploring my surroundings, indulging in yummy food as well as sharing my experiences have grown into my main passion. I love capturing beautiful moments, editing and storytelling.
Ever since I was a teenager, I’ve passionately planned every trip that I’ve been a part of. I’ve booked flights, researched hotels and Airbnb’s and sometimes even planned trips without any intentions of actually going, just because I thought the planning part was fun. Family and friends are frequently asking me for help and input on their travel plans, and they are always surprised when they see me visiting hidden gems in Sweden that they didn’t know existed.
