About us
Welcome to That Surprise Spot, a travel blog dedicated to uncovering the world’s best-kept secrets. If you’ve ever stumbled upon a tucked-away café, a quiet mountain trail, or a charming little village that made you think, “Why don’t more people know about this?”—then you’re in the right place.
We’re Roberto and Caroline, two passionate bloggers living on a Mediterranean island, dedicated to uncovering the hidden gems that often fly under the radar.
Caroline, a globetrotter from way back, came up with the idea for this blog. She’s always been great at finding those hidden spots that wow you. When she pitched the idea to Roberto—an Italo-Maltese artist and author—he immediately saw its potential. Together, we decided to take the plunge and bring this vision to life.
At That Surprise Spot, we believe there’s more to travel than ticking off predictable bucket-list landmarks. We’re here to help you discover places that tell unexpected stories, offer one-of-a-kind experiences and leave a lasting impression. From quiet corners of bustling cities to stunning natural wonders far from the busy crowds, we love shining a spotlight on destinations that deserve a little more love.
