    Italy / 01.10.2016

    You guys might remember our first trip to the Dolomites and the little town of San Candido (if you don’t, you can check out the story here). We caught a train ride from Austria arriving in the small town, instantly falling in love with the area and the gorgeous mountain range (which we, to this day, mark as our favourite range in the world). So our love for the town is there. Our love for the mountains, and the lakes, and the cute chapels is there. Why on Earth would we not want to return, and share this gorgeous place with friends? Why would we not want to take the opportunity to hike around the infamous UNESCO World Heritage Site, the Tre...

    Spain / 27.09.2016

    Our TLC / BD trip* continued, and the next stop on the whirlwind itinerary was Seville in Spain. Beautiful, beautiful Sevilla (as it is known by locals). Ah, what a city! Small but not cramped (I noticed even in Barcelona that the Spaniards design their cities to be quite spacious so yay for Spain), and oh so colourful! The hotels, the common areas, the little dangling bunting running across the bridges - everywhere you look there’s bright colours luring you in, shining bright with a constant sunny disposition, leaving you feeling joyful and de-stressed. Who could ask for more? We checked in to one of the fanciest and adorned hotels we have ever seen – turns out it was designed for royalty,...

    Portugal / 19.09.2016

    We get asked so often (by almost every single person we meet and tell our story to), "what is our favourite place of all?" Of the 100-odd cities we’ve seen, of the mountains, valleys, beaches and deserts we’ve explored, what is the ultimate place; the one we dream of visiting again and again and again? Well, that question is almost impossible to answer, because, well, there’s just too many spectacular places around the world to pinpoint ’the ultimate place'. Trust me, we debated, and argued, and tried, but couldn't choose just one. What we did conclude though, is that we definitely have favourite places under different criteria*. We have a favourite mountain range, favourite cuisine, a favourite city (although probably safe to...

    Sweden / 14.09.2016

    If I told you that we’d made 218 new friends in the past 18 months, would you believe me? People from Australia, Norway, Canada, Singapore and Italy. People aged 18, 45, and 31. People who we had planned encounters with, and people who miraculously stumbled into our lives, and now we have them on speed dial (ok, so we don’t actually have them on speed dial, because, well, we don’t make any calls these days, but if we had actively-calling phones, we’d have these people on speed dial). It’s no secret that travel broadens your network and allows you to meet people from completely different walks of life. I guess Stevo and I expected to meet people on the journey; it’s...

    Iceland / 17.08.2016

    This is going to be the shortest post I've ever written, because, well, there is really only one reason why you shouldn't visit Iceland in the Summer, and that's because you have a thing against natural beauty; natural beauty that will lure you in and explode beneath your feet, in front of your eyes and completely take your soul; a kind of beauty that will force you to reconsider all future Summer travel plans because you will want to come back again and again and again. Natural beauty that shows off every minute of every day. From the colourful sands of Landmannalaugar, and giant ice blocks at the Jökulsárlón lagoon, to the gushing waterfalls at Skogafoss, Gljúfrabúi and Seljalandsfoss, and miracle waters...

    Iceland / 10.08.2016

    Our motto and motivation is to “collect experiences, not things”. Whilst on our journey, we’re aiming to spend our time and money on spectacular experiences, to be left with incredible learnings and memories, not tangible objects. This way, we’re sure to keep our lives light without additional luggage, but also be the change we want to see in the world. Our next featured experience is a week spent living on a remote island in Iceland, Traustholtshólmi. It's not often we get to experience world firsts, and, well, we got to live on a private island with Hákon – the world's only man living alone on an island surrounded by a glacial river (I guess he technically isn't alone, as he has his...

    Iceland / 04.08.2016

    I must begin this post by apologizing to our regular readers. We've been really quiet (on the blog) and we haven't been able to keep up with the one-blog-post-per-week frequency that we set for ourselves. But if I told you that we'd been to twelve cities in six countries this month alone, would you forgive me? Hope so #TrueStory And some of you may have noticed that our website has a new look? Well, that's a work in progress too, and we hope to "unveil" it and shout about it a bit more once it's complete - so please no judgement just yet! Now back to the topic of this post...

    Spain / 12.07.2016

    Our motto and motivation is to “collect experiences, not things”. Whilst on our journey, we’re aiming to spend our time and money on spectacular experiences, to be left with incredible learnings and memories, not tangible objects. This way, we’re sure to keep our lives light without additional luggage, but also be the change we want to see in the world. Our next featured experience is the Topdeck Travel tour, Ibiza Sailing. Sailing is not entirely new to us. We enjoyed some land-less living on the beautiful waters of the Aegean Sea, this time last year, when we visited our amazing friends from Live-Bio. We lived in close proximity, as we sailed through Greek islands, learning how one hand always belongs to the boat, and how...
