The Story

I love how experiencing a new way of living can change someone’s view of the world. I’m French and spent a year studying in Ireland in 1996. It changed my life. New language, new culture, new things, everything was different and it helped me to get new perspectives.

I realised that what make a place authentic and unique you don't find in any travel guides. 

I started Tourist Republic and created Touristr.com with the ambition of bringing innovation into the travel space. The journey has been tremendous so far, we travelled the world and worked with amazing people from Limerick, to Jacksonville and San Francisco. I hope we will continue to build amazing products with passionate people.
