My Story
A creative traveler and free spirit, with an inner fire that ignites only when I’m exploring.
Travel Style
I like to do things I've never done and visit places I've never seen. I'm all about new experiences, whether it's backpacking in Southeast Asia, climbing Kilimanjaro, diving in the Great Barrier Reef, or enjoying myself on a remote island in Fiji.

Maria is a great travel advisor. When we had to stay in Amsterdam for extra days because of a snowstorm, she helped reorganize our whole trip, contacted our hotel in Rome to explain the situation, and took care of all the changes for us. She handled everything so smoothly and really helped keep a stressful situation as easy as possible.

It honestly feels unfair that there are only five stars to give, because the experience Maria Misle gave us was on another level entirely. This was, without exaggeration, the best travel planning experience I have ever had.
From the very beginning, Maria understood exactly what we wanted. We shared our travel dates, a general budget, and the idea of seeing the top European cities in about 20 days, especially since it was my girlfriend Lucia’s first time in Europe. From there, Maria took full ownership of the trip and elevated it far beyond anything we could have imagined.
She carefully designed the perfect route: Paris → Amsterdam (for New Year’s Eve) → Rome → Barcelona → Madrid. What impressed me immediately was how intentional every decision was. She didn’t just suggest cities—she knew exactly how many days we needed in each one to truly experience the best of them, without rushing or burning out. Her timing was flawless.
When it came to transportation within Europe, Maria went above and beyond. She researched direct flights whenever possible, chose comfortable travel times (often starting around noon) so we didn’t have to wake up exhausted, and made sure that travel days didn’t interfere with key activities. You could tell she was thinking ahead—knowing we’d already be tired from long days of walking and sightseeing. The trip never felt hectic, and that’s entirely thanks to her planning.
Then came the hotels—and this is where Maria truly shines. She conducted an extensive and thoughtful search for hotels in every city, balancing budget, location, walkability, proximity to metro lines, and—most importantly—romance, since this was an anniversary trip. Every hotel felt intentional, well-located, beautiful, and perfectly aligned with the experience we wanted. We never once felt like we compromised on quality or comfort.
And then… the food. Maria is, without a doubt, a true foodie—and it shows. She didn’t just recommend restaurants; she curated exceptional culinary experiences in every city. We had outstanding French, Italian, and Spanish food, but she also introduced us to incredible Korean, Japanese, and Indonesian restaurants that we never would have found on our own. Every single recommendation was a hit. You can immediately tell that she doesn’t recommend places lightly—she knows her food, she loves it, and she only sends you to places she truly believes in.
On top of all of that, Maria created a detailed, hour-by-hour itinerary for every city. She accounted for walking distances, travel times, pacing, and energy levels, making sure we could realistically see everything without feeling overwhelmed. She even included direct links to official ticketing websites for museums and attractions, which saved us time, money, and stress. Everything was seamless.
What truly sets Maria apart, though, is how personal her work is. You can tell she has traveled extensively—but more than that, you can tell that when she travels, she is fully present. She remembers places, documents them, and builds an internal library of experiences that she then uses to craft unforgettable trips for her clients. When she recommends something, you trust it immediately—because it’s clear she’s been there, lived it, and refined it.
Most importantly, you feel that Maria loves what she does. She plans your trip as if it were her own, with care, passion, and an obsessive level of detail that is incredibly rare. Working with her doesn’t feel transactional—it feels collaborative, personal, and exciting.
To anyone considering using Maria Misle as their travel advisor: Do it. Without hesitation. She doesn’t just plan trips—she creates experiences, memories, and journeys you’ll remember for the rest of your life.
Maria, thank you for everything. This trip was unforgettable—and that’s because of you.

Maria was fantastic throughout the entire process. Her knowledge, insights, and guidance in finding this hotel and shaping the experience were truly second to none. We’ve worked with other travel advisors in the past, but Maria put an unmatched level of care and attention into making this trip special — especially because it was our honeymoon.
She spent significant time working directly with the hotel team to ensure we were looked after at every step, and it showed in the details: a beautiful suite upgrade, breakfast included each morning, additional credits/gifts, and a genuinely seamless experience overall.
She was also incredibly responsive and dependable. Anytime we had a question — whether it was about logistics, timing, or booking something in — she was there immediately, no matter the time of day.
If I could give one recommendation, it would be this: work with Maria for your future travel bookings. She knows the best properties inside and out, and she puts real care and consideration into everything she does. She made sure we had the best possible experience — and she delivered.

Maria’s help for this booking was outstanding. She took care of the hotel selection, daily activities, museum tickets, restaurant booking and much more.
The app based itinerary made it easy for me to navigate Florence like a pro.
I highly recommend using her service!

Florence: The Essential Must-Do Guide
Florence has always held a special place in my heart because it was the city my father fell in love with while studying there, and his stories made it feel magical long before I ever visited. Each time I return, Florence never disappoints—its food, history, and art wrap you in a beauty that feels timeless. Walking its streets feels a bit like stepping back in time, yet somehow it also teaches you something new about yourself. It’s a destination that leaves you changed in small but meaningful ways, every single visit.
