Great trips to Beijing start here.

Bonjour from Montreal! I'm Emi, a travel designer born in Istanbul, Turkey. I took a leap at 16 to explore the world, calling 9 countries and 12 cities home, currently based in this vibrant Canadian city. My adventures have taken me to over 35 incredible destinations, where I've not only indulged in delicious food (a true passion!), but also dived headfirst into local cultures. I thrive on authentic experiences. But my background goes beyond just exploration. As a certified Sommelier and graduate from a top hospitality school, I spent 8+ years as a Food & Beverage Manager working for high-end, luxury hotels. This experience ignited my passion for creating unforgettable travel experiences. With my network of industry friends around the globe, I'm your personal travel curator, crafting itineraries that go beyond the ordinary, minimizing stress and maximizing memories. 🗺️ Destinations I can help you with: Turkey, Switzerland, Canada, New York, Los Angeles, Hong Kong, Beijing.

I'm a travel adventurer and love travelling solo as it allows me to find some hidden gems and explore the world from a unique perspective. I love staying at hostels and it feel it is such an underrated accommodation type and can offer a wonderful experience not just for solo travelers but families travelling with kids too. I regularly post reviews on google maps so do check that out but love to connect with people and help them plan a unique travel adventure.

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.
