Emily With A Carry On started after I realised you don’t need loads of money, loads of time, or a perfectly planned life to have amazing experiences.

What started as one solo flight to Milan to prove to myself I could do something scary, quickly turned into an obsession with extreme day trips, weekend escapes, good food and finding experiences worth leaving home for.

Now you’ll usually find me:

• booking suspiciously cheap flights
• planning trips around food
• wandering European streets with a carry on
• comparing viral spas
• or somehow ending up back at the airport before midnight.

I love affordable travel, cosy hotels, spa stays, little adventures and food that’s genuinely worth travelling for.

Most importantly, I want this space to show that life doesn’t always have to be huge, luxurious or perfectly planned to feel exciting.

Sometimes all you need is a cheap flight, a good meal and a day that feels different from normal.

Thanks so much for being here 🤍
