Welcome to
That Travelista






New to the Site?
My name is Em!
I’m a 9-to-5 escapee who left my career in corporate finance some years ago to make more room in my life for my greatest obsession – travel.






Now, a lot of people like to travel …
… but I’m a bit of a weirdo in that I love to plan out the trip as well! For me, creating the itinerary is almost half the fun. And the only thing better than planning out my own travel itinerary is helping someone else plan theirs to a place I’ve visited.
So that’s how this site was born! Here, I combine all my research beforehand with my lived experiences to create “what I would have done” travel itineraries. I also share general learnings that I think would be useful for other travelers, as well as occasional meanderings about post-corporate life.
I hope you enjoy the site!
