Not sure where to go or how to plan it?
We’ll help you build the perfect trip
We’ve been where you are — too many tabs open, unsure which destination actually fits your travel style, and wondering if you’re about to book the wrong thing.
This is a 60-minute, one-on-one Zoom or Google Meet consultation based on our real travel experience.
Tell us where you’re thinking of going, what’s holding you back, and what matters most to you.
We’ll give you an honest, personalized perspective — the kind of advice we’d give a friend, not a customer.
We can help you:
Get clarity on destinations, seasons, and logistics before you commit
Weigh trade-offs honestly — without a sales agenda
Sense-check your plans and catch the mistakes that aren’t obvious
Ask anything about a specific place, trip, or travel style
What this isn’t: a travel agency, an itinerary builder, or a booking service.
What it is: two people who travel extensively, research obsessively, and care more about being honest than being agreeable.
After payment, you’ll fill out a short form with your trip details and availability. We’ll follow up with a few time options for your call.
We’ve spent years exploring places most travel guides skip — Arctic Norway, quieter corners of Portugal, off-season Iceland. We know what’s worth it, what’s not, and what’s often overhyped.
For €40, tell us where you’re thinking of going — and what’s holding you back.
We’ll go through it together on a 60-minute 1:1 Zoom or Google Meet call, with honest, practical advice based on real experience. No packages, no commissions.

“We have been dreaming of a trip to a cold and snowy land for some time and discovered the Penguin Trampoline blog. We'd discovered Lapland (Finland/Sweden/Norway) and decided this might be the best place to venture to.
The information Elinor has provided is so complete and informative. We decided to request a call with her to help us get our thoughts together. She provided a video call link and we all got on together and shared our vision with her. She has so much insight on where and what is involved, and the places we've been thinking of going.
We'd recommend a call request if you're at the point in planning that you feel you need some input on from someone who knows that part of the world (and others as well).
Thanks, Elinor (and Macaroni), for the help!”
