Meet your travel advisor

I’m Patricia, and the way I live my life, might be a bit unhinged, but it is undoubtedly very useful for you. You see, I moved to an island 3 years ago - on a whim. I had a very quiet year and a half or so - with lots of surfing, making new friends, just living the island life. And then, well… I had enough of my job, and decided to go solo travelling.

At that point I was already well-travelled, but things got a wilder turn. I was smart enough to only go to Portugal, and take it easy. Well, I ended up in Morocco a couple weeks later with a girl I knew for 36 hours at that point. Moral of the story, I made some amazing memories, came back to the Canary Islands, and soon enough set off to my next trip to the Philippines. And after that came China, and Kyrgyzstan. (Yes, things progressively got more and more unhinged).

But why does this story matter? With having a true passion for travelling, all my friends and family started asking me about travel tips, and one thing led to another, Beyond Trails and Tales was born.

So now, based on my own experiences, trials and errors, I create the best adventures for You, dear fellow traveller. When you have to plan 6 months of (budget!) adventures within weeks, you develop some strategies, with being able to find the cheapest deals, the best flight tickets, and most importantly - the hidden gems, other people don’t even know exist - and I’m so passionate about this part. Becasue after all, if you see what the locals experience, a place is not just a holiday destination anymore.

When you are ready to save endless hours of research, and get  your trip planned by someone who has already been to where you are going, just scroll down a tiny bit more:)

(If you don’t find your destination on the list, don’t worry! I’m happy to plan your trip wherever your path leads.)
