📷Throwback to a favourite trip to Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam 🇻🇳

Ho Chi Minh City, or its old name “Saigon”, is a fabulous city to explore, especially if you love food Hassan 🇲🇦!

Sooooo many places to eat at and historical sites to visit, Ho Chi Minh City is a definite must if you’re making your way to Vietnam for any trip.

Besides walking and exploring so many things, one of my favourite things is to take a Vespa Food Tours at night with ! I’ve done their Food Tours twice and it has been amazing and I highly recommend it!

Not far from Ho Chi Minh City you can also take a bus to Mekong Delta, which is a whole experience of itself that I think everyone should do.

My favourite thing about that was the floating market. to see every boat as its own floating shop and people riding boats to get from one to the other at the break of Dawn… Very very cool.

another highlight… staying at - wow what an incredible experience to be able to stay so close to nature and have some of the most delicious food.

Now this makes me wanna go back to Vietnam…! Perhaps in 2026 a Philippines/Vietnam Travel Experience should be in the works… What do you think?

⭐️GUEST REVIEW - Morocco 🇲🇦 ⭐️ Doug & Silvia, Canada 🇨🇦

“We have been ‘planning’ a Morocco trip forever. Follow Your Heart Travel experiences had outlined a solid tour of Morocco hitting all the highlights we’d hoped for snd more. Tracey allowed us to customise our trip and was helpful in planning and timing. Her knowledge of resources made it easy to arrive and know the details were looked after. Tracey’s insights based on her experience was very helpful throughout our trip. When we looked back on what was the best; we found there were many things and in retrospect, everyday was ‘the best’.

So summing it all up, we’d do it all again. Tracey and her team of guides and driver made it an easy and enjoyable travel.“

Thank you guys for your trust. You were an absolute blast to show around Morocco! 🥰

Small group travel - whether one of scheduled Signature Trips or a private trip - is one of the best ways to travel.

In and out of places with ease…shared memories together… lots of laughs and moments that will last a lifetime.

We have 3 scheduled Signature Trips to Morocco next year - Feb, Oct & Nov. but if those dates don’t suit you, no worries! You can choose your own and we will make sure you have the very best time here in the Kingdom!

Hi friends! If you are new here - welcome! 🙏🏽❤️

I am Tracey - the founder and curator of Follow Your Heart Travel (fyhtravel). I have had the delight of hosting hundreds of guests from around the world the last 14 years! ❤️🌍

This is my little space in the interwebs where I post on a (semi) regular basis all things travel and things near and dear to me! I also send our email newsletters now and then letting you know of new trips, favourite recipes and other travel tidbits. You can sign your at the link in my bio 🔗

I’m currently in Marrakech, Morocco 🇲🇦 working on a big project…the biggest I’ve ever endeavoured personally. ✨

It’s exciting and scary, exhilarating and stressful, but honestly - it’s something I’ve dreamed of doing for many years and I finally decided to DO IT…!

I live a fairly unconventional life - my passport is 🇨🇦 but I live on a beautiful island in 🇬🇷. Some people have literally called me crazy because of how I have chosen to live.

That doesn’t bother me one bit; I have had a life verse for several decades now and live by it as best I can:

“Tell me, what will you do with your one wild and precious life?” ~ Mary Oliver.

Real Travel Experience - Amal Cooking Classes 🥘

A favourite among our guests is a cooking class while in Morocco.

Being able to “take home” something like a cooking class will let your trip live on for years to come. 🥰

Our favourite place to have cooking classes is at Amal in Targa.

From the preparations, the cooking, the beautiful tea ceremony to finally eating the fruit of your labour - Amal’s morning cooking class will be a highlight for all while in Morocco.

The women of Amal are amazing and ther centre is a beacon of hope and light for everyone who walks through its doors.

They have a restaurant in Gueliz - the new town - that you definitely need to visit if you’re in Marrakech for several days. As well their Targa location offers a beautiful Saturday lunch buffet.

Visit Amal online to find out more about it this beautiful organization. ❤️

It is home to a medina full of white canvas buildings with murals, a stunning beach and a a quiet and calm to soothe any travelling soul.

Sometimes when I am working it doesn’t look like a travel host - it looks more like a photographer!

That’s because for over 2 decades that was what I did - I was a wedding, portrait and travel photographer. Who knew?! 😉

I still put on my professional photographer hat - but it doesn’t feel like work. It comes in the form of giving back.

I love being able to use some of my skills to give back to amazing organizations around the globe, in destinations I visit with guests.

This was a time I was helping with a cookbook at Amal Women’s training centre in Marrakech.

It’s always a joy “working” with Amal 🫶🏽❤️

** Amal has a restaurant in Gueliz that serves an amazing menu of Moroccan dishes. In their Targa location where they do their catering services, they also offer fabulous cooking classes as well as a vegetarian buffet lunch every Saturday. Check out their social media for more information! www.amalnonprofit.org **

LITTLE THINGS I LOVE ABOUT… Nepal 🇳🇵

Presenting - the momo.

It was love at first bite on my first visit to Nepal. And when we had a cooking class at the end of our trip and learned how to make these delicious pockets of goodness, I thought I went to heaven!

Lesvos is home to some of Greece’s most delicious and unique cuisine.

One dish that’s is loved by many is our pastes or local sushi as we like to call it. 😉

Sardeles Pastes are found mostly in Lesvos, mainly because the sardines from the Gulf of Kaloni are considered the best in Greece, if not the world.

During the summer months the sardines are caught in the morning, salted on the boat or immediately upon returning to the port, and then eaten that evening with ouzo.

There’s also a pickled raw fish called lakerda and smoked raw fish called skoubri.

All of them are delicious and all of them - you should definitely try! 🥢🍣

DESTINATION HIGHLIGHT: Molyvos, Lesvos 🇬🇷

Known as one of the most beautiful villages in Greece, Molyvos or Mythimna in the past, is a must-visit for anyone who makes their way to Lesvos.

The old agora or shopping street, the Byzantine era castle, the cobblestone streets filled with shops, restaurants and sites to see and the seaside - from frolicking swims to romantic sunsets.

Molyvos is a dream and you need to experience her for yourself. 🩵

ACCOMMODATION HIGHLIGHT: Riad Jolie, Marrakech 🇲🇦

A hop, skip and a jump away from the infamous Jemaa el Fna, Riad Jolie is one of favourite places for our guests to call “home” while in Marrakech.

Warm Moroccan hospitality coupled with a beautiful Riad with a calm atmosphere, Riad Jolie is the perfect place to relax while exploring Marrakech.

One of the reasons why I do what i do is because I get to meet amazing people.

Let’s take our North Aegean destination- Lesvos - for example.

Yes it’s my home, where I live… but I also have made some amazing connections with beautiful people who, when we collaborate, give my guests an incredible experience.

Whether it’s a boat or mountain bike excursions, a culinary experience, wine or olive oil tasting, self-care while on holidays, getting in touch with nature or shopping for local products… the beautiful people here on Lesvos are some of the most wonderful that my guests will come in contact with.

And I’m so thrilled to call them friends too ❤️
