​I’ve always believed that travel isn’t about how far you go, but how deeply you experience a place. My Travel Shoes grew out of that idea - a space to share the places that have left footprints on me, and maybe inspire a few journeys of your own.

​

I’m drawn to places with texture - cities layered with history, quiet coastal towns with character, cafés that seem to hold the sound of conversation in their walls. My kind of travel isn’t about racing from one landmark to the next, but about lingering: walking until a city starts to feel familiar, finding the best local bakery, or noticing how the light changes in the late afternoon. Oh, how I love magic hour.

​

I usually travel with my beau, and together we try to discover as much as possible - not just what’s listed in the guidebooks, but what gives a place its rhythm and soul.

​

You won’t find bucket lists or “must-see in 24 hours” guides here. Instead, you’ll find moments - a mix of design, culture, architecture, and those small details that make travel feel alive. I love discovering how people live, create, and celebrate wherever I go - from markets in southern France to hidden courtyards in Spain, or quiet mornings in Portugal.

​

Travel, for me, is both outward and inward. It’s a way of seeing the world, but also a way of noticing more closely.

​

If that’s how you like to travel too - with curiosity, appreciation, and maybe a good pair of shoes, then welcome. You’re in the right place.
