About
"Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness."
- Mark Twain
​
Our family believes the world is meant to be explored, not just observed from a distance. What started as weekend getaways and annual vacations has evolved into a more profound philosophy about how we want to live and what we want to pass on to our children and grandchildren.
Our travels have taken us across continents and cultures, from bustling markets in Southeast Asia to quiet mountain villages in Europe, from multi-generational family adventures to intimate couple escapes. We've navigated foreign transit systems, celebrated birthdays in unexpected places, and discovered that some of our most treasured memories happened when plans went sideways.
We document these experiences not just for ourselves but also because we've learned that the best travel advice comes from real families who've actually been there, made the mistakes, and figured out what works. We're not travel professionals or influencers—we're regular people who've chosen to prioritize experiences over possessions, curiosity over comfort, and adventure over routine.
Our approach is simple: travel independently, embrace local culture, stay curious, and remember that the grocery store often reveals more about a place than any tourist attraction ever could. We believe in doing your homework before you go, but staying flexible enough to let serendipity surprise you.
Every stamp in our passports represents a story, a lesson learned, or a perspective gained. We hope sharing these stories inspires you to create your own, because the world is waiting to teach you something new.
Whether you're planning your first international trip or your fiftieth, we're glad you're here. The journey is always better when shared.
