New places, emotions, the color of countries, and the taste of different cuisines forever captivated the future creator of a unique travel community Viktoriia Knignitskaia. Viktoriia also spent her first self-made money in her youth on traveling. Initially, the girl had no idea to turn her hobby into a business. Viktoriia kept a personal blog for friends, telling about her travels, showing interesting places, sharing locals' secrets, and giving travel recommendations.

Viktoriia always took an active part in the discussion, and for regular clients, she held round tables with the involvement of experts. In addition, creating such a club allowed us to make a real women's community whose members communicate and become friends after traveling together. Over time, Viktoriia decided to expand the audience's geography, created her website, and immersed herself in the online format. This is how the Victory Travel Community project came into being in 2010.
