Where Wanderlust Meets Creativity
Hello, Iβm Andrea β a lifelong traveller, maker, and lover of beautiful, meaningful adventures. Happy Days Travel and Crafts is where my two passions come together: exploring the world and creating by hand.
Here youβll find in-depth travel guides, practical tips and tricks, and inspiration for slow, mindful journeys that let you truly connect with a place β whether youβre travelling for a few weeks or living abroad for a while. I share the kind of details that make travel easier, richer, and more personal: how to plan longer stays, find local experiences, and travel at your own pace.
And because creativity is part of every journey, youβll also discover craft ideas inspired by travel, handmade keepsakes, and stories of makers and markets from around the world.
Happy Days Travel and Crafts is a space for anyone who loves to wander, make, and live creatively β wherever the road leads. Letβs fill our days with discovery, connection, and a little sunshine along the way π.
