About Me

CURRENT MISSION

we are on a year long world adventure - so aiming to stay happy and healthy and have a fantastic time!

ABOUT ME

We are a relatively young married couple. We are excited about many things including travel and leaving a gentle footprint on the planet (although we realise plane travel is not really compatible!). We are keen to learn as much as possible about the places we are traveling through and connect with local people and their stories.

PHILOSOPHY

To live well - treat the planet and the people around you with respect and love - sounds a bit cheesy but it works for us!
