Hello!!

Thanks for stopping by and be welcome to the blog!

My name is Elisa Maria Arce Simmelink, but you can just call me Lili! I’m the founder of Hey, I am Lili, a bilingual travel blog that hopes to inspire you to travel the world, to unveil new cultures and to share every precious tip I find out there.

It really makes me happy to have you here, getting to know me better and enjoying this space that is ours! I hope you like it!

About Hey, I am Lili

The blog was born in December 2016 after I moved to Finland with my family.  It was a way of sharing a little of everything and feeling closer to the people! I wanted to write things that could be useful to others, share emotions, my experiences and make new friends around the world. Something like Hey, I’m Lili, come in and be welcome! So don’t be shy if you wish to get in touch!

I have many passions in life, but one thing that makes me happy is being able to get on the road. So, little by little, the blog was molded and today is a place to exchange information about travel. At the moment, you will find it more active in the Portuguese page with destination tips, routes, everything involving travel and all you can`t miss in each place.

There will also be issues related to Finland and other articles that I share as a monthly columnist on the site Brasileiras Por Mundo, a Brazilian platform of women around the world. Not to mention that there is a new video every week on my channel!

It is a space where I share travel in general; where I invite friends to collaborate and try to inspire by sharing the greatness of the world for people to have a happier lifestyle! 

I hope you can feel all the love involved in each post, that you can find the information you need and take a moment to subscribe to our newsletter at the end of this page!

I will love to have you always around! ♥

The most important things in this life? Cry with laughter, a good wine and people I love always around anywhere in the world!

  • Caminhar por Budapeste foi uma aventura! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Um dos lugares mais lindos da cidade é o Fisherman’s Bastion, a fortaleza construída ao redor da Igreja de São Matias! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Ele fica no alto de Buda e, apesar da região ser linda, ter algumas atrações ao redor, não é a melhor localização para se hospedar! Em Peste, você encontrará acomodações com preços melhores e muito mais opções de coisas para fazer! Mas passar o dia por Buda é, com certeza, um dos pontos altos da viagem! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ (🇬🇧) Walking around Budapest was an adventure! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ One of the most beautiful places in the city is the Fisherman’s Bastion for sure! It’s just next to the Matthias Church and all the area of Buda is amazing! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Although it’s beautiful, it’s not the best place to stay! Pest has more accommodation options - cheaper as well - and way more attractions around! But a full day in Buda is for sure a must do!
  • Verão em Estocolmo ☀ King's Garden! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Viajamos para lá em Junho do ano passado para ficar 4 dias! E, adoramos tanto que teríamos ficado uma semana inteira se pudessemos. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ O calor tava de matar, mas é uma cidade tão cheia de vida e com tantas atrações por todos os lados, que você acaba não sentindo tanto assim! Fizemos os walking tours com a @freetourstockholm e recomendo! Também visitamos a Fortaleza de Vaxholm que fica a uns 40 minutos de transporte público de Estocolmo! Valeu muito a pena... a cidade é linda!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ No perfil tem um destaque de Estocolmo e no blog mais dicas sobre a cidade! Link na bio!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ (🇬🇧) Summer in Stockholm 😍 King's Garden!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Last year we spent 4 days in Stockholm and it was incredible! The city is amazing, full of attractions and great people. We did walking tours with @freetourstockholm and also went to Vaxholm - a Fortress just 40 minutes away from Stockholm - with public transportation. Vaxholm is also incredible and worth the visit!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ We would have loved to stay a week if it was possible! When planning, add the archipelago to your trip and you won't regret it ❤⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
  • É dieta que fala? 😅⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ O Lángos é um prato típico húngaro que parece uma pizza, mas a diferença principal é que a massa é frita! Algo bem light, como podem perceber 🙈 Mas como a dieta passou longe nessa viagem para a Hungria, tivemos que provar também o Lángos Burger! E num é que é bom? A massa tava sequinha, crocante e a combinação deu certo! Esse é do @karavan_budapest que fica ao lado do bar mais famoso, o Szimpla!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ No perfil tem destaques com muitas dicas de Budapeste, Györ e Sopron 🇭🇺⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ (🇬🇧) Our trip to Hungary was a flavour experience! Lángos - the hungarian pizza - is very traditional but we also had to taste the Lángos Burger 😋 Even though it’s made of a fried dough, it was delicious! This one is from Karaván which is located just next to Szimpla, the most famous bar in Budapest!⠀⠀
