Thanks for stopping by! My name is Maria Haase and I am the publisher of EuropeUpClose. I grew up in Germany and now call sunny San Diego my home. But my heart still longs for Europe and I spend as much time as possible each year.
On EuropeUpClose, my team of Europe-expert travel writers and I are sharing helpful travel articles, inspirational stories, and my top Europe travel tips with you.
