Hi There. I'm Emma, a blogger from Southsea. I'm a professional nerd, with a massive love for travel, so Geeky Tourist is my way of sharing tips on how to make each day a little geekier than the last. If you love books, movies, TV series, games, science, or history, you are going to find something here for you.

Drinks by train | Going to the @vytopnatrainrestaurant in Prague and getting drinks delivered to our table by a tiny 🚂was one of the funnest things I've ever experienced at a restaurant before. It's definitely something to add to your geeky bucket list if you find yourself in the Czech Republic.
Did you know there's a museum dedicated to alchemy and magicians in Prague? Not a word about Harry Potter, but there is an entire room dedicated to Edward Kelley, John Dee.. and Shakespeare - who was evidentally an aquaintence of the two. Part of the museum is actually housed in Edward Kelley's Old laboratory, where he attempted to create a real life Philosophers Stone.
The beautiful Hungarian Opera House 😍 Getting to explore this beautiful building was one of my favourite things about visiting Budapest. The opera house is currently closed for reservations, but you can still go in for a tour like we did. There's even a little surprise at the end 🎼🎶🎤
One of my absolute favourite buildings in Vienna 😍 not only is this place stunning - like seriously, look at those walls - but it holds over 30 million objects, thousands of which are on display.. Including dinosaurs!
So many of you guys have been loving the pictures of all the libraries and bookshops I visited whilst I was in Vienna, so I've compiled a little list of my favourite literary locations in the city for all you book geeks - one being the beautiful Shakespeare and Company, whose beautiful shelves are pictured here 😍 its up on the blog now {link in bio}
Jess and I bought a new car this week - Kenobi the Kia - and he's beautiful. I never thought I would care about what type of car I had until I experienced heated leather seats - seriously 👌 I really want to go on a road trip at the weekend so that we can give him a proper test run, and I also want to make a little car kit for the trip, but I'm not sure what to put in it - any suggestions? This picture is us exploring dragon caves in Krakow - it's one of my favourite 2018 memories. There are loads more up on the blog in you'd like to read {link in bio}
Beautiful views over Vienna 😍 I've actually just put up my first post about our trip to Vienna on the blog {link in bio} - it's all about the amazing literary locations you can visit in the city, so if you're a massive book lover like myself, you're going to want to check it out. Do you like visiting bookshops and libraries when you head to a new country? Its one of my absolute favourite things to do.
One of my goals this year is to find more film sets - are there any movies in particular you guys would like me to go hunt for? This particular shot is a scene from Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves, which I took at Aysgarth Falls in Yorkshire - where parts of the movie were shot. Aysgarth itself was stunning, so the fact that one of my favourite movies was filmed there was icing on the cake.
