OUR STORY
Traveling is a passion of the Greater than a Tourist book series
creator. Lisa studied abroad in college, and for their honeymoon
Lisa and her husband toured Europe. During her travels to Malta,
an older man tried to give her some advice based on his own
experience living on the island since he was a young boy. She was
not sure if she should talk to the stranger but was interested in his
advice. When traveling to some places she was wary to talk to
locals because she was afraid that they weren't being genuine.
Through her travels, Lisa learned how much locals had to share
with tourists. Lisa created the Greater Than a Tourist book series to
help connect people with locals. A topic that locals are very
passionate about sharing.
