Since more than 5 years ago I’m living nomad around the world, passionate for the newness, discovering new things, and immersing in other cultures and lifestyles.
What do you love most about Ko Tao?
"I initially went to Ko Tao for a few days and ended up staying for almost 2 months. This island is pure magic, with paradisiac beaches, crystal blue water and so much marine life."
Favourite time of year to visit Ko Tao
"The best months are between February and April when the weather is warm and dry."
Best sunset spots?
"Well, let’s start by saying that sunsets on the island are on another level. I literally haven’t missed one in 2 months. Secret Bar and High the Moon are the perfect spots for a good view!"
You can’t leave Ko Tao without…
"Getting a scuba diving certificate! Did you know Koh Tao is so far the cheapest place in the world to get a PADI certificate? What are you waiting for? "
@torresani_filippo's Top Tips
"Rent a bike to go around the island, and avoid taxis which are super expensive. If you’re looking for a peaceful vacation, avoid staying around Sairee Beach. I would say Chalok is the best area to live."
Favourite beaches...
"Pretty much every beach on the island is very beautiful, except for the ones close to the harbour. I would say Shark Bay and Aow Luek are my good-to-go beaches."

What do you love most about London?
"London has so many things to offer from sightseeing and activities to nightlife & food options. It has something for everyone! It is an iconic city and you can really feel an amazing vibe when you're there."
@travelsbyar's Top Tips
"Make sure to plan your sightseeing and activities in advance! London is a big city and it can be tiring to fit in everything all at once. Try grouping your activities depending on the area of London."

"Make sure you have warm clothing and an umbrella! No matter what season, always expect some rain in London!"
Benefits of a tour guide for London
"Check out the link in my bio for a travel guide on London. It'll help you group your activities depending on the area of London so you're not tiring yourself out trying to cover the whole of the city :)"

What do you love most about Ella?
"Ratana Falls are only a short bus ride down the hill from Ella town, make sure you use the public transport bus - it’s super cheap and a great authentic experience."

Hobbiton in Guatemala? Sure! Why not...
"Being a massive LOTR fan, I was in my element. If you are in Antigua, definitely check out this spot! The views are unbelievable and you get to geek out for a few hours."
A 'MUST' whilst you're there?
What do you love most about Hobbitenango?
"Apart from the obvious LOTR spots and activities, the views are quite simply stunning. If you get lucky like we did, you can see Acetenango and an erupting Fuego."
@callander_shaun's Top Tips
"It can get quite busy so it is best to go in the morning. If it's not already included in your tour, you can book directly through Hobbitenango's office in Antigua, as we did, or make your own way there by Uber/taxi."
Is Hobbitenango worth visiting?
"It definitely is! It's a short 30-minute drive and you can choose a time slot to come back. There are a lot of fun activities and a beautiful area to explore. Your Guatemalan Shire experience awaits..."
