Scroll our Travel Blog for inspiration.
If you want to see what we’ve been up to, or if you want some inspiration for your next trip, scroll through all of our blog posts.
You’ll find itineraries with practical travel advice, in-depth history into our favourite sites, memories of the best food, restaurants, and bars we’ve visited as well as books that have inspired our wanderlust.
You’ll also find Travel Journals which give more personal insight into destinations without a step-by-step guide - this is the stuff we love writing because travelling isn’t only about what you see, and the world isn’t a list of places and sights to be ticked off; it’s about what you feel, who you meet and what you learn along the way. Sure, it’s useful to know what bus to get where, but we want to write about the museum exhibit in Austria that had us in open-mouthed wander for an hour. The home-cooked meal that made us cry, the time we tried (and failed) to explain cricket to Argentinians through mime, the tango class lost in translation, the colours of the Northern Lights reflected in each other’s eyes, and mountain air so cold it took our breath away.
Please comment to leave your feedback or ask any questions, we’d love to hear from you!

From Sacred Stones to the Seven Colour Lagoon
After crossing 15 borders in the last ten months, we felt pretty relaxed heading from Belize into Mexico and spent our first week exploring Campeche and Quintana Roo.
A Flying Visit to Belize
In the serene waters off the coast of Belize lies a true gem of the Caribbean: Caye Caulker. The island motto demands that visitors “Go Slow” - this is a place to unwind and soak in the natural splendour of the world.
Temple Ruins at Tikal
The sun was still rising above the jungle as we entered Tikal national park. Somewhere in there, hidden amongst the tangle of leaves of vines - almost reclaimed by nature - is the remains of one of the most powerful citadels in the ancient Mayan world. Tikal.
Living the Sweet Life in Rio Dulce
In the eastern reaches of Guatemala there is a place like no where else we had visited during our month in the country so far. Welcome to Rio Dulce... you’ll never want to leave.
The sparkling pools of Semuc Champey
Nestled in the Guatemalan jungle, Semuc Champey is a natural marvel renowned for its turquoise pools cascading over limestone formations.
Sampling Antigua’s Delights and Scaling Acatenango’s Heights
From living our best brunch lives to barely breathing at the top of a volcano, Antigua was a Central America highlight.
Colourful Granada and Historic Leon, Nicaragua
Strolling the colourful and history-packed streets of Nicaragua’s rival cities, Granada and Leon.
Concepcion, Cacao & Kayaks on Ometepe Island
We packed a lot into our time on Ometepe island. Stunning nature and authentic experiences made it our favourite Central America stop so far.
Volcanoes & Cloud Forests in Central Costa Rica
The next two weeks felt like a holiday within our trip, as we welcomed our good friend Jay to Latin American shores.
A Trip to Manuel Antonio National Park
Nestled on the Pacific coast of the country, the town of Quepos is a hub for accessing Costa Rica’s most visited national park: Manuel Antonio.
Monkeying Around in Puerto Viejo
We continued our Caribbean coast adventure across the border in Puerto Viejo de Talamanca - where we had amazing wildlife encounters!
Beach Life in Bocas
We made our way back to the Panamanian coast to spend New Year on Bocas del Toro - a group of paradise islands located in the north of the country.
Christmas in Boquete
Our Central American journey begins in Panama. After a few days in the capital, we made our way to the Central Highlands in time for Christmas.
Island Idyll: Ilha Grande
Known for its lush rainforests, postcard-worthy beaches, and crystal-clear waters, Ilha Grande was just the tranquil escape we were looking for.
Falling for Floripa
Over 40 pristine beaches, from tiny coves to surfers paradise, party destinations and playgrounds for the rich and famous, Floripa has it all.
Chasing Waterfalls
“Poor Niagara,” were Eleanor Roosevelt’s famous words upon seeing Iguazu, the incredible complex of waterfalls that straddle the border between Argentina and Brazil. She wasn’t wrong.
Mountains and Malbec in Mendoza
Mendoza is perhaps best known for its thriving wine industry, its long history of grape cultivation dating back to the Spanish colonial era thanks to the combination of fertile soil, a range of microclimates, and the influence of the Andes' pure meltwater making the perfect conditions for wine production.
Bariloche: Argentina’s Alpine Town
Bariloche sits on the shores of the magnificent Nahuel Huapi Lake, one of the largest in the region full of sapphire lakes, and is surrounded by an awe-inspiring natural landscape reminiscent of the Alps.
Mystical Isla Grande de Chiloé
Wild, windswept and beautiful. Although only 40 minutes away from the mainland, life on the Isla Grande de Chiloe felt a world away from the Chile we had travelled through to date.
Pucon and the Chilean Lake District
Pucon is part of the Chilean Lake District, a name evocative enough to paint a picture of our surroundings for the following 5 days: lush forests, sparkling lakes, and towering volcanoes.
