About me

Welcome to She Knows Islands!

Hi! I’m Linda, the passionate island explorer behind “She Knows Islands.”

After years of travelling and exploring various islands, I’ve created this blog to share my love for these unique, water-encircled paradises with like-minded, like you.

Here you will find travel guides, itineraries, planning tips as well as information on places to see and visit and outdoor adventures on various European islands.

My journey: My island adventure began on the beautiful Portuguese island of Madeira, where I completed a 2.5 year hotel apprenticeship that inspired my love of island life.

This passion led me to the exciting world of cruise ships, which gave me the opportunity to explore the amazing islands of Greece and the Caribbean.

Since 2021, I’ve been living the life of a full-time travel blogger. I am as well the founder of the Blogs Hiking the alps and insieme-Piemonte. Based in Germany and Italy, I dedicate my time to discovering the many beautiful islands of Europe, especially in the cold European winter.

Why I blog

My Mission: She Knows Islands is more than just a travel blog. It’s a platform where I share personal experiences, expert tips, and insightful advice to inspire your next island adventure.

I won’t recommend places to eat because I’m not a foodie, and I won’t suggest the best spots to lounge on the beach since I can’t stay still for more than 15 minutes and full beach days are therefore not possible for me. Those things aren’t for me, so I only share insights from my personal experiences.

Join me and get inspired: Follow along on She Knows Islands where I regularly post updates, travel guides, hikes and outdoor adventures and personal insights, and much more.

Important: None of my photos are edited! I only publish the unvarnished and unedited truth! In addition, all of my images are optimized for the web and are therefore no longer 100% sharp on a retina display. I consciously accept that.

Thanks for joining me on this journey!

Cheers,
Linda
