The author behind The Beach Muse
Hi, I’m Sophie! A while ago, I fell in love with the treasures of the Mediterranean coast: its tiny coves with crystal-clear water, its charming ancient villages, its authentic people, its endless choice of delicious flavors… the list is long!
I’m French, originally from Paris, but that love for the Mediterranean brought me all the way to Athens, where I ended up living for almost five years before moving to Zurich. The Mediterranean has a way of doing that to you!
I’ve been exploring the region for over a decade now: more than 30 destinations and counting, from the whitewashed coves of the Greek islands to the wild beaches of Mallorca, the ancient streets of Athens and the fishing villages of the Ionian coast. Some places I keep going back to: Corfu, Paros, Athens, the Balearic islands… Others I’m still discovering!
My mission with the Beach Muse is to discover and share the most breathtaking destinations around the Mediterranean, as well as one-of-a-kind places to stay and local savoir-faire, including emerging labels and creators. All my honest recommendations, practical tips and the kind of detail you only pick up from actually being there!
The Beach Muse, it’s me, it’s you: we share a passion for this special corner of the globe and could spend our days by the sea talking about the small things in life. Here you’ll find travel guides for Greece, the Greek islands, Spain, Portugal, Italy and France, alongside summer lifestyle tips, tanning advice and everything that goes with a life spent by the sea.
So happy to have you here. See you soon in my monthly Mediterranean Diaries!
