About Travel Smart Europe

Hi, I’m the person behind Travel Smart Europe.

I’m a Swedish woman in my 50s, a mother and grandmother, who decided to start living life a little differently. Instead of waiting for “someday,” I chose to create a life where I can travel, explore Europe, and still work remotely as a customer service advisor.

Today, I’m living my best life—discovering beautiful places, experiencing new cultures, and proving that it’s never too late to start a new chapter.

Why I Created This Website

I know how overwhelming travel planning can feel—especially when you're trying to find the right place to stay, good locations, and real value for your money.

That’s why I created Travel Smart Europe.

Here, I share the kind of travel tips, destinations, and hotel recommendations I personally look for—places that are:

  • Comfortable and well-located

  • Worth the price

  • Perfect for relaxing, exploring, and enjoying life

Travel, But Smarter

This site is all about helping you:

  • Save time when planning your trips

  • Find great places to stay

  • Travel more easily and confidently

Whether you're planning a short getaway or a longer stay in Europe, I want to make your journey simpler—and more enjoyable.

A Small Note

Some of the links on this website are affiliate links (like Booking.com or Amazon). This means I may earn a small commission if you book through them—at no extra cost to you.

It simply helps me continue doing what I love: sharing travel inspiration and helping others travel smarter.

Final Thought

You don’t have to be in your 20s to explore the world.
Sometimes, the best adventures begin later in life.

👉 Now it’s your turn—start exploring Europe the smart way.
