Meet The Explorer

Let me Introduce Myself

I’m not the type of person who travels only to see the main tourist attractions. However, they are worth adding to your itinerary! I’d rather get lost down a cobbled street, relax in a local cafe, or learn the history behind places that most people walk right by.

I’m Krista, a Canadian-born travel blogger based in the UK and Spain. I combine my love of travel with my interest in history and local experiences to produce unique travel guides. 

The articles I write reflect my personal experiences and highlight places that I would recommend travelling to. Hopefully, my travel guides will inspire you on your next journey, whether that’s a weekend getaway, an overnight stay, or an epic road trip.

more about Krista the explorer

I explore the world through a mix of history, culture, and local cuisine. From wandering through museums to stumbling upon Roman ruins hidden behind busy streets and finding independent cafes, I seek out places that many visitors walk straight past. Alongside my travel guides, you’ll also come across travel gear reviews and gift guides.

Studying medieval history and archaeology at the University of St Andrews helped shape the way I travel. I’d happily walk an extra 30 minutes if it meant finding a secluded castle to photograph, and I’m always keen to learn how places have changed over time and the stories behind them. This naturally leads me to places locals eat, where history and everyday life intertwine.
