About Pina Travels
Hi, I’m Erin! But my nickname is Pina. I believe travel is an incredible way to learn not only about the world, but about yourself. The goal of this blog is to inspire you to travel, and to do so responsibly. I also host a podcast about responsible travel called Curious Tourism.
I’m an active member of the Travel Media Association of Canada, and my profile has been featured on Business Insider, AFAR Media, in the Toronto Star, and True North Living. Recently, I published an opinion piece covering how to travel more consciously in the age of overtourism, for the Toronto Star.
Between 2022 and 2024 I’ve been nominated in 6 categories for the Traverse Creator Awards, winning the award for Best Written Piece and Best 12-Month Achievement. In 2023, I was shortlisted as Travel Creator of the Year by the Influence Awards.
On Pina Travels, you’ll find guides that cover topics like how to avoid overtourism, tips for traveling sustainably, and unpacking travel privilege. You’ll also find guides that cover places all over the world, including my home province, Ontario.
