– Let’s Go!
Hey, I’m Eva Flis,
the creator behind
the Island Girl Travels.
As an award-winning photographer with 15 years of experience, I’ve blended my two greatest passions—photography and travel—into a lifestyle that lets me explore the world while doing what I love. Through years of exploring vibrant cities, remote islands, and everything in between, I’ve gained firsthand knowledge and insights that I now share on my blog.
The Island Girl Travels isn’t just a portfolio—it’s a full-on travel blog packed with real experiences, hidden gems, practical travel tips, hotel and resort reviews, and photography advice. Whether you’re dreaming of a tropical escape, want to improve your travel photos, or you’re looking for ways to live a life full of adventure, you’ll find something here to inspire your journey.
