Hi there! My name is Anna and for the last couple of years I have created visual diaries of all my travels around Europe in search for great coffee, cozy places, delicious foods and off the beaten path attractions. And I want to share them with all of you….All of my experiences and adventures – curated from my experience and honest personal reviews.

I strongly believe that experiencing a city does not lie in checking off attractions, but in feeling the vibe of the city wandering through their unpopular streets, seeing the locals go about their day and eating alongside them in their local places.

And with these goals in mind, I wanted to create off the beaten path travel itineraries for other like-minded travelers to have as guides — so that you don’t experience the hassle of researching and compiling information and so that you have every information in just one place on your phone.

Thank you for joining me on these adventures and if you like my visual diaries, please subscribe and let me know what you think in the comments. I would love to hear your feedback and it would greatly help me on my journey to providing useful and requested information on off the beaten path spots in Europe. πŸ™‚

  1. Amazing city! Pro tip, when filming avoid rotating the camera if you can. Shooting scenes, and switching scenes is preffered and will look more professional, however more time consuming. Moving the camera and rotating may make viewers dizzy (including me)
