16-Day Itinerary to Discover Bali, Nusa Penida, and Nusa Lembongan
Hi there,
Bali was a huge crush for me: the kindness of the local people, the culture, the rice terraces, the volcanoes, the beaches... Everything comes together for a dream trip. Even the crowded sites and the crowds don’t take away from its charm.
A few tips:
- visit the very famous sites as early as possible
- don’t book everything in advance so you can adapt your itinerary based on your mood
- enjoy Bali and the islands south of Bali—don’t waste one or two travel days heading to the Gili Islands, there’s already so much to discover

17-Day Namibia Itinerary with 4x4 and Rooftop Tent
Hi there,
A group of friends (4 of us) and I set off on a 17-day road trip across Namibia in a 4x4 with a rooftop tent. I’ve put together a full recap of the trip, including our stops, activities, budget, and the campsites where we stayed—wild camping isn’t allowed in Namibia, so booking campsites is a must. If you need any details, feel free to check out the post here: https://worldseenbymathilde.blogspot.com/2024/11/itineraire-2-semaines-en-namibie-avec.html
Helpful tip: The water at all campsites in Namibia is safe to drink, so no need to buy bottled water—just fill up your 4x4’s tank.

What to do in Rio? Where to stay? Safety?
Hi there,
After a trip to Brazil, I wrote an article about our stay in Rio. You’ll find all the tips for visiting this city in it: where to stay, what to see and how, and our thoughts on safety compared to everything we’d heard. We loved Rio and will definitely go back one day to experience Carnival. We visited in September, which seemed like the ideal time in terms of weather and tourist numbers (which were still reasonable). Our favorite: the Pedra da Gavea hike.

Self-sufficient road trip in Oman with a rooftop tent
Hi there, my partner and I did a road trip in Oman in January 2025 with a 4x4 and a rooftop tent. We only slept in free spots out in nature. It’s essential to have a 4x4 to experience this. The *Oman Off Road* book was a huge help—we bought it locally. I’ve written up our whole adventure and shared all our tips on my blog, including GPS coordinates to help you find campsites or even cross the desert on your own. Here’s the link: https://worldseenbymathilde.blogspot.com/2025/02/notre-itineraire-de-10-jours-oman-en.html
Choosing between Sumatra and Sulawesi
Hi there,
We’re heading out for 3 weeks from September 20th to October 12th, and we’re torn between Sumatra and Sulawesi. Are the landscapes similar, or is one less touristy? What about the cost of living, trekking, typical small villages, and beaches?
We’re a bit lost—any info or suggestions would be super welcome!
Book "Oman Off Road"
Hi there, I traveled to the Sultanate of Oman last January and had the book *Oman Off Road* in digital format in English, plus a second version in French. For anyone planning their trip, if this book interests you, don’t hesitate to reach out—it’s a real bible for off-the-beaten-path travel. Here’s my email for direct contact:
