Hey! I am a young traveller trying to see as much of the world as I can. I love travel and I want to make the most of each place while balancing limited time off and budget as someone early in their career. I would describe my travel style as a mix between going out and exploring on my own terms and leveraging tours and guides for activities that would require expert advice/guidance. My goal while creating itineraries here, is to make the most of each trip possible. I share the things I kept in mind while planning and packing for the trip as well as things I wish I knew before I got there. My guides are filled with places and activities that I would 11/10 recommend and the logistics to do them. If you are debating whether to buy any of my itineraries, think of them as a starter template for you trip with a lot of options for you to add and subtract based on your preferences. I hope you have the best trip :)

I am polish travel and adventure Photographer, since 2016 based in Iceland. I explored Iceland back and forth - there is only few places that i skipped (for now). Most of my guides will cover Iceland from Photography point of view but also casual exploring with both budget and luxury lodging. In close future i will publish guides from other travels (Galapagos, Madeira, Thailand).
