Our evolution

From an idea born of grief, we gave up our cushy corporate lives in 2009 to travel nomadically for nearly 8 years.


We were eventually grounded by leukemia, remained rooted by COVID-19, and are now embarking on a new life in a new corner of our home country. We will explore it with fervour, while also venturing into the wider world. Along the way, we’ll continue to share stories and travel tips to help you also live your best travel life.
