Eleni Philippou

Hi! I’m Eleni, a travel writer, event photographer and blogger who gets a kick out of uncovering new lands and cultures. I thirst for new, eye-opening experiences and through my work, aim to encourage fellow adventurous minds to live and travel consciously.

I trot through life with a journal, a pen and a camera in my back pack, documenting life in my own quirky way. An islander at heart with big dreams, I yearn to explore the unfamiliar, the ordinary and the peculiar, as does my writing and photography.
