ABOUT

Welcome to Aganjú,
a home for curated, well-researched travel lists to our favourite destinations. Our mission is to be your trusted companion in the search for unique, enriching experiences.

The name Aganjú stands for wilderness and untamed beauty. Like molten lava carving new paths, we dive into uncharted places, revealing hidden gems and stories that make each destination truly special.

We're not your typical travel blog, guide, or agency. Our approach is straightforward and genuine, just like the tips we'd share with friends. No gimmicks, no sales pitches. Just honest lists and practical advice shaped by personal experience.

We’ll be sharing hundreds of destinations from our growing archive. Each one has been lived, loved, and documented with care.

Feel free to send us your travel requests. We’re always happy to prioritise what matters to you.

HOW IT ALL STARTED

Ever since we first started dating, travel has had a strong presence in our relationship. 

During our first trip together, we were both nervously hiding our travel notes, afraid that the other would discover how much of a neurotic planning geek we truly were. It didn’t take long, however, until we began to fail in our attempts to act casual whilst dropping hints on where to go, where to stay, and where to eat... We soon realized that we shared a passion for the perfect holiday, which involved a ton of research, even for the shortest getaway.

After having acknowledged our common obsession, we began to compare notes. Truth is, we had both been sitting on vast libraries of self-made travel guides across the world. We both had numerous excels and lengthy lists of hotels, restaurants, sights, coupled with hourly schedules, commentaries and prices…

Together, we went through more rounds of research, scouting through countless resources to stumble upon new destinations. Our database grew bigger, and requests from friends (and friends of friends) kept pouring in daily. As a result, we created concise and verified lists based on our own experiences.

Many of you might have already received or requested these popular lists, and that brings us back to July 2023. While relaxing in a boutique hotel in Sifnos (that we had booked a year in advance), listening to Bebel Gilberto, we decided to make all these ‘guides’, which had previously been shared on WhatsApp, available here, for free. 

So, dear friends, here you go! We hope you'll love these hidden gems as much we did. 

Happy travels,

Ines and Nils
