The purpose of this blog is simple: to keep a record of our travels in a way that’s easy to share with the people we love. We want to remember the stories we’ve heard, the incredible people we’ve met, the delicious food we’ve eaten, and the ways all of those things have helped us grow into more compassionate, understanding, and engaged people – and into better travelers. We also hope that our stories will inspire you to actively seek adventure no matter where you are or to plan the dream trip(s) you’ve been holding at the back of your mind.
Now, a little about us…
Neither of us grew up traveling much, but it didn’t take long to realize it was a deeply rooted dream we shared. There are times when we think back to our childhood selves who wrote lists upon lists of places they wanted to visit after learning about them in school, and we are overcome with gratitude for where we are now. We’ve made those childhood selves proud in this regard. What more can we really ask for?
Over the last 5 years, we’ve created a pretty good system* that allows each of us to bring our personal strengths to our travels: Gabriel is the budget guru, the navigator, and the primary logistics planner. Juliette is the organization queen, the details researcher, and the primary photographer.
So far, our adventures have taken us across the U.S., down to Costa Rica and Peru, and up to Canada. Now, we’re following the prevailing winds across the Atlantic to explore the wonders of Europe!
We’re excited you’re coming on the journey with us!
