Tourist to Local

Tourist to Local American and Mexican couple, traveling to every state in the USA and Mexico! We're Juliana and Martín! She’s from the USA, he’s from Mexico. We call nonsense.

We’re here to help you turn your trips into culture and value-packed adventures. Think the travel world’s only split into hardcore backpackers and tick-the-box tourists? You’re out to see a destination’s must see spots, but also to sneak off the tourist path to find the spots that only locals go. You’re chasing experiences with value, and we’ve got you. When you travel with us, it’s no fluff, just the good stuff, because your vacation deserves more than just scratching the surface.

Planning a trip to Copenhagen? Here’s our mini guide! Comment HAPPY and we’ll send you our 3 day itinerary + free map!

WHERE TO EAT
👉 Hallernes Smørrebrod - try the open-faced sandwiches
👉 John’s Hot Dog Deli - hot dog
👉 Vækst - a plant-forward restaurant inside an actual greenhouse
👉 Bloom - great for a sit-down dinner
👉 Mister Bianca Pasta Bar - a hidden gem, go early or expect a wait
👉 Helge’s Cheese - best sandwich of our life. ORDER WITH ARTICHOKE CREAAAAAM

WHERE TO GO
📍 Nyhavn
📍 The Little Mermaid Statue
📍 Freetown Christiania - Copenhagen’s alternative community, genuinely fascinating
📍 Amalienborg Palace
📍 Kastellet - a 17th century star-shaped fortress you can walk through for free
📍 Tivoli Gardens - the original inspiration for Disneyland
📍 Kronborg Castle - worth the 45 min train ride if you have an extra day

WHAT TO DO
👉 Take a canal tour - best way to see the city and understand how it’s laid out
👉 Do a pastry tour (comment HAPPY for the one we did!)
👉 Explore Nørrebro - the local neighborhood most tourists skip

IMPORTANT
👉 Download Rejsekort before you leave home - it’s the app you use to tap in and out of public transport, and they send a text code when signing up so do it before you go

WHERE TO STAY
🏨 We stayed at Best Western - it’s right in the city center and one of the more affordable options in that area. Comment HAPPY for the link!

We made a video exploring Copenhagen for a few days and honestly it surprised us - it felt warmer than we expected. Comment HAPPY and we’ll send you the full itinerary + map!

doing a food tour specifically for pastries sounds extra until you realize you can hit 5 bakeries in 3 hours without the research. 10/10 would do again in

PASTRIES YOU NEED TO TRY WHILE YOU’RE HERE:
👉 cardamom bun: or …do not leave without one
👉 cardamom croissant:
👉 Spandauer (custard danish) —
👉 Hindbærsnitter (raspberry cookie) —
👉 Tebirkes (poppy seed croissant) —
👉 romkugler: .vanhauen

Amsterdam!!! We love you!!! 🌷🇳🇱

We made it back to the country that both of us love dearly, but had never visited together!

Martín studied in Groningen in the Netherlands, and Juliana visited solo right after college to get in touch with her Dutch ancestry.

This time we finally are back to make a PROPER video (bc yes there are ones from Juliana’s solo trip still on the channel if you scroll aaaall the way back), and we are so happy with how this one turned out.

Watch it now on our channel!

🇳🇱

save this before your Copenhagen trip 🇩🇰

Copenhagen kind of snuck up on us with the food scene. we knew about the Michelin spots but had no idea how many different ways there were to eat really really well here across every budget.

comment LINKS for everything in this video (packing cubes, suitcase, all the clothes) 🔗

okay so i said carry on only for a 2 week beach trip and then immediately went overboard ... but in my defense the packing cubes + suitcase left me with extra room and i said might as well. no regrets.

also yes there are a lot of white shirts. we don’t talk about it.

also real ones know: 2-3 shirts can carry an entire trip. the odor resistance is actually unreal and it’s the reason i stopped overpacking tops years ago.

full breakdown of what made the cut:

👙 swimsuits:
👡 shoes:
👕 basics: mainly
🧤 odor-resistant tees:

SAVE this if you’re a fellow carry-on girlie planning a beach trip

have you ever pulled off 2 weeks in a carry-on or does the thought stress you out? 👇

we’ve been using for years now and it’s become one of those non-negotiables we don’t travel without. not because we want to be on our phones the whole trip, but because the best travel moments these days are spontaneous, and spontaneous kind of requires data.

what we didn’t expect was how genuinely useful the unlimited data would be for staying in touch with the actual people we meet along the way. new friends, hosts, guides, family back home.

a few things worth knowing:
👉 they have regional plans if you’re hopping between countries (we’ve used this so many times in europe, asia, and south america)
👉 unlimited data so you’re not rationing every google maps search
👉 code TOURISTTOLOCAL gets you 5% off eSIMs or 10% off monthly plans

Use our code TOURISTTOLOCAL for 5% off on any Holafy eSIM and 10% off Holafly Plans subscription for 12 months, and stay connected too!
