10 YEARS OF TRAVEL BLOGGING: THE HIGHS AND LOWS (+ LESSONS LEARNED)

When we first started travel blogging 10 years ago, we had no idea what we were doing, nor where it could go.

We just saw potential, possibility and our passion for sharing our personal travel tips and stories!

Lifestyle We Love – Together

If we didn’t have this travel blog, we would probably be living a life of work and kids at school. I’m so glad we didn’t because along the way, we’ve realized spending quality time together and putting family first is a strong value of ours.

Having a Wonderful Community

Surprisingly, the greatest joy from our travel blog is the gift of helping others. I never knew it would be that way coming into it.

As Australians, we were stunned and overjoyed when our iconic Aussie brand invited us to participate in the Qantas Crusade Rugby World Cup campaign as their official correspondents.
