We’ve had an amazing time so far in Indonesia and visited some beautiful places. However, to be perfectly honest – nothing has quite made our jaw drop as of yet. Nothing we have seen has been particularly ‘unique’ or new – the beaches back at home in beautiful Perth rival everything we’ve seen so far. That’s why we have been… Read more →
We cannot believe it’s already been a month since we left Perth and our friends and family behind, to pursue our nomadic existence on the road! It feels as though we left just yesterday, but at the same time – like we’ve been doing this forever! I think it’s fair to say we’ve experienced a bit of a ‘baptism by… Read more →
Indonesia is a massive country – there are over 17 000 islands that make up the nation. Travellers to Indonesia find it difficult to decide where to spend their time – with incredible destinations, sites and activities all over the country. The other factor that makes travelling difficult, is the restrictive visa conditions. Currently, Australians are entitled to a ‘Visa… Read more →
They’re on the street corner in just about every Asian country; the women standing outside with their brochures beckoning you in – and no, I am not referring to certain establishments with seedy undertones – I’m talking about massage parlours.

It was one of the first destinations I’d eyed off when putting our itinerary together – Pulau Weh, north of the Aceh province in Sumatra.

Being that we only had a certain amount of time to travel, we wanted to make sure we made the… Read more →
When you make a decision to go full-time travelling, it’s not quite as simple as booking a flight, packing a bag and off you go. We really wish it was, but there’s generally a few little things to sort out before you move on – like the whole job situation. The housing situation. The what on earth do we do… Read more →
A year ago, when we made a joint decision that travelling the world together was what we wanted to do more than anything, we realised that we’d have to make some big changes in our life. There was no ‘having our cake and eating it too’ – keeping our fabulous life, apartment, job and hobbies here in Perth as well… Read more →
We live an incredible life here in Perth, Western Australia. We both have amazing careers, which are a result of study and hard work over the last several years. We live in an amazing apartment on the river, with beautiful city views. Both of us enjoy various hobbies, classes and volunteering that we dedicate lots of time to each week.… Read more →
