Andrea Affinati
I’m Andrea Affinati, the writer and main editor behind every article on Voyaged Magazine. I started publishing travel content in 2011 and never really stopped. Over time the notes, itineraries, and random observations from those trips slowly turned into this site.
My background is in engineering, which probably explains why I tend to approach travel a bit differently. I’m interested in the practical side of it, how places work once you’re there, what makes a destination easy or frustrating to navigate, which details end up mattering.
Everything on Voyaged Magazine comes from direct experience. If a destination appears here, it means I’ve been there, spent time walking around, taking notes, and eventually turning that into something that might be useful for someone planning the same trip.
If you’re curious where I am between articles, I’m usually posting travel notes and photos on Instagram at @andrea_affinati
Over the years my travel insights have been quoted in several international publications:
