A BIT ABOUT US

EMILY & SHAUN

In February 2023, we finally decided to quit our jobs in the UK, sell most of our belongings and hop on a plane to Nepal! We have saved up over the past few years and will be travelling around the world on a budget!

If you want to follow our day-to-day journey, head over to our Instagram where we share our mini vlogs, beautiful pictures and info on the amazing places we are visiting.

WHERE WE’VE BEEN

OUR TRAVELS SO FAR

So far, we have travelled to 38 countries! We are extremely grateful that we have had the opportunity and chances to be able to do this and to continue to explore the world!

By no means are we experts but we have travelled enough to feel comfortable sharing our experience with others. The good, and the bad! We hope that you’ll enjoy reading some of our posts on our travel blog and we can inspire you for your next journey!

OUR FAVOURITE PLACES SO FAR

Our first stop on our journey was to Nepal, where we climbed to Everest Base Camp! We love hiking and prefer being out on mountains/countryside to the hustle and bustle of a city. This was a once in the lifetime adventure and we loved every minute of it! Check out our full guide to the hike here! Everest Base Camp – Everything You Need To Know

One of our favourite places we have been is the Perhentian Islands in Malaysia! These aren’t very well known as most backpackers tend to visit Langkawi instead, but they shouldn’t be missed! Crystal clear water, clean beaches, epic dive sites and amazing locals – what more could you want!!?
