Everything I Packed For an 8-Day, Multi-City Backpacking Trip Through the Balkans

Published by Diana

There is a single secret to a good, multi-city backpacking trip: Pack light.

curated shopping

Our Etsy Shop!

Straight from our studio(s) in Paris/Iowa, a set of 15 postcards of Parisian neighborhoods. Each design is based on colors taken from the neighborhood shown, and all are created from my hand-cut paper-cut maps. See the postcards or see the full range on Etsy.

Also available! Our 8" X 10" map prints, available for neighborhoods in New York, LA, San Francisco, London, and Paris (seen here — this one is the Marais). Both digital downloads or printed by me!

The Deal

Faraway Places is a blog about travel, and Paris, and beauty and fashion, and writing, and shopping, and books.

It is written by a travel writer (for outlets including The Wall Street Journal, Travel + Leisure, Lucky, Afar, Rolling Stone, and Wallpaper).

When not actually traveling, I like to read books and see movies about other places, in a very top-down, list-centric kind of way.
