A Note From Our Founder
Hi, I’m Istvan. After more than 30 years in a demanding tech career, I chose to build a life around my passions: travel, food, and history. I created JourneyGazer to be the resource I always wanted: a collection of in-depth research and thoughtful planning designed to help fellow curious travelers discover the heart of a place.
