Profile

Una Thorne is a travel writer working from Lisbon. Nobody spoke much English, and somehow that made it easier. A modest backpack helps, but it is not the point.

This site started in 2025. You can get surprisingly far with a modest backpack and some patience. The result is not perfect, but it is truthful. I keep a short list of things to try next; keeping a journal is near the top.

It is a plain static site: no tracking, no ads, no comments. You can write to inbox@second.maplethicket.sbs.
