We’ll help you build the perfect trip
We've spent years exploring places most travel guides skip — Arctic Norway, forgotten corners of Portugal, off-season Iceland. We know what works, what's overhyped, and what's worth the detour.
For €40, tell us where you're thinking of going and what's making you hesitate. We'll send you a honest, personalized answer based on real experience — not packages, not commissions.
After payment, you’ll access a short form to explain your trip and questions. You’ll then get a thoughtful, customized response by email.

ABOUT US
We’re Elinor & Jake, a married couple living in Spain, with a common passion for exploring our beautiful planet. Elinor holds a Master’s in Tourism Management, with a thesis focused on polar destinations — just one more reason we’re drawn to the Arctic and the world’s wilder corners. Read our full story and background here.
We know tourism isn’t inherently sustainable — but we believe you can’t truly respect or protect what you haven’t experienced.
For us, there’s a happy medium. That’s why we offer travel articles, pictures, videos, inspirational playlists and advice crafted from first-hand experience, taking into account the visitors’ and the locals’ perspective.
Why Penguin Trampoline?
It all happened when folding laundry — and with a rock.
Intrigued? Read the full story here.
We are the trampoline for penguins who want to fly, enabling the curious traveler to expand their horizons, often off-the-beaten track.
Because wa/ondering is the first step towards respect.
🐧 Track a Penguin with Fahlo
New in 2026: You can follow a real penguin on its icy journey across the Southern Hemisphere — thanks to Fahlo’s adorable Expedition bracelet. Even better? Every purchase supports Penguin Research Society (Penguin Global), helping protect penguin habitats around the world. They’ve also got bracelets for elephants, polar bears, sharks, and more — each one tracking a real animal and funding research to protect its wild habitat.
