A travel blog about places, cultures, and the feeling of belonging nowhere and everywhere at once. Part practical, part personal, written by a Mauritanian woman between the desert and the Alps. Are you the planner, the dreamer, or the wanderer? Whichever you are, there is a way to travel with me.

Unique, authentic itineraries, far from mass tourism. I test, compare and analyse every destination to give you clear, practical guides, with my honest favourites and the stops I'd tell you to skip.

Here you'll find places told as stories: what they felt like, who I met, and the questions they left me with. Read them to dream before you go, or to travel somewhere again long after you are home.

Mauritanian by birth, Swiss by chance, forever in transit. Not fully here, not fully there, but enriched by both.
Here, you will find practical travel guides, personal stories, cultural reflections, and occasional essays about Mauritania, Switzerland, and the invisible forces that shape our lives.
Above all, I hope this space encourages curiosity. About places. About people. About the assumptions we inherit without questioning them.
