Our Background

We’re Shay and Yohann!

After exploring 40+ countries over the past two decades, including several years living in Asia, we kept noticing the same gap in travel content: people shared where to go but not what it actually costs to enjoy it or how to stay safe while traveling.

That’s why we started Palm Trees Advisors. To help you experience the world while staying informed and in control of your spending and safety.

Our blog and destination guides break down the true costs of activities, food, transport, and accommodations so you can plan confidently, not blindly. We also provide detailed travel itineraries based on real experiences to help you get the most from every trip and stay safer along the way.

A Background in Travel Safety Through Training and Experience

Yohann spent 21 years working at the CIA in operations and spent about seven years of his career overseas. He received a lot of training on security, preparation, maintaining awareness, responding appropriately to threats, and keeping a low profile. Utilizing this background has helped us feel confident in our safety while traveling, so we created a course to share important guidance on how you can also stay safer when visiting your dream destinations.

Whether you’re planning a trip or a lifestyle, we hope our experience can save you time, money, and stress.
