About

This blog is a collection of the most special memories from my own travels. I hope in the future it will also contain those of whom I have met along the way.

There are countless blogs and websites that provide endless advice from where to travel, what to take and every other logistical possibility. These sites have indeed helped me on my own travels and are useful to any traveller, regardless of experience.

I want to offer something different. Instead of there wheres and hows of travel. I want to focus on a different question: why? I want to share stories. I want to show the side of travelling beyond attractions and photographs. I want to inspire.

Travelling is a unique experience for everyone. For some it is a chance to relax away from the stresses of everyday life; for others it is more radically a method of escapism; and for some it is quite simply an addiction.

Regardless of the motivation, travel can often be equated with freedom, adventure and new experiences. Within those experiences are those magical moments of serendipity. When a plan went wrong but led instead to one of your favourite memories. Life is so much better when you embrace those moments rather than fear them; I hope these stories inspire you to feel the same way.
