About Page Traveller

I’m Amy, an explorer of real and fictional worlds. A word huntress. An escape artist. A page traveller.

I started this blog in 2015 when I was living as an expat in Hong Kong, as a way to keep in touch with friends and family back home.

Later, I wrote about my backpacking adventures in Southeast Asia and Mexico, as well as my other experiences living overseas in Italy and Thailand.

More recently, I’ve started my next chapter as a digital nomad and travelling cat mom.

And of course, I’ve been journeying through books all that time, too.

Where to start?

Here are a few posts that sum up me and what Page Traveller is all about:


Travel Essentials

Here are the websites and services I personally use and recommend. 

Disclaimer: this box contains affiliate links. This means I earn a small commission if you choose to make a purchase using this link, but at no cost to you.

FLIGHTS: The best deals can be found on Skyscanner, Google Flights and Kiwi (learn more about Kiwi travel hacking here).

TRAVEL INSURANCE: I recommend World Nomads for travel insurance because you can purchase once you’re already overseas and you can easily extend your policy. For digital nomads, I recommend and personally use Genki (learn more about Genki digital nomad health insurance here).

E-SIM: For travel in Europe, I use an e-sim with GoMobile, which is a provider based in Malta, but you need to be there to set it up.

ACCOMMODATION: I use Booking.com for hotels and Airbnb for apartments. For Colivings, I usually book privately, but Coliving.com is a good place to start.

THINGS TO DO: I use Viator or Get Your Guide for booking day trips, city tours and other activities, though I often check reviews on TripAdvisor too.
