Our first stop on our trip around the world. We experienced more than a few “Lost in Translation” moments & meltdowns during our month here as we got into the full-time travel lifestyle (the August humidity did NOT help), but there were many beautiful, transcendental moments too.

View the Archives » Image Gallery »Huge, overwhelming and hard to handle at times, China was our third stop and challenged us in a way we’ve never experienced before (or since!). Running the gamut from the highest highs and the lowest lows; we left with a deep ambivalence about our time there. We were relieved to leave, yet we know we’ll return… some day.
View the Archives » Image Gallery »Wonderful people, beautiful islands and so-so food. We loved our time in our fourth country so much that we extended our visa so we could experience more (and still left with a long list of places we need to visit when we return!).
View the Archives » Image Gallery »Our fifth country was an extravaganza of great food, amazingly friendly people, beautiful temples and stunning countryside. We visited on something of a whim but fell madly in love.

View the Archives » Image Gallery »Our most visited country since leaving home, we visited Thailand no fewer than four times. It always felt like coming home and we always were sad to leave. The food is as good as the rumors purport, the people live up to the country’s moniker as the “Land of Smiles” and the countryside is beautiful.
View the Archives » Image Gallery »Our favorite country. Vietnam made us work for its love at first, but ultimately it captured our hearts like nowhere else has. The food was spectacular, the people were amazing and the country was unimaginably beautiful.
View the Archives » Image Gallery »Cambodia is home to Angkor, one of our favorite sites, and we love parts of the country, but we left feeling unsettled.
Image Gallery »Outstanding diving, pushy touts, diverse islands and beautiful and challenging terrain. We visited the main islands of Bali, Flores and Java, as well as mini trips to Nusa Lembongan, Kanawa, and Komodo.
Image Gallery »Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful. One of strangest, most wonderful place we’ve ever been. From hiking in the Himalayas to wandering the crowded, pungent streets of Kathmandu, Nepal is truly one of a kind.
Image Gallery »Calm, quiet, and lovely in a subdued way. Not much to do, and that’s okay. For a while.
View the Archives » Image Gallery »One of the most beautiful places we’ve ever been. Warm people, delicious food and stunning scenery. We didn’t spend nearly enough time. Read about our adventure renting our own tuk-tuk!
View the Archives » Image Gallery »Rule Britannia! Friends, food, & lovely old sights. It’s hard to think of a better city on the planet; certainly, it’s one of our very favorites.
View the Archives » Image Gallery »A tortured romance with the City of Lights. We ate the food, saw the greats and got pick-pocketed. Despite that, our favorite thing about Paris (apart from the museums) was the wonderful new friends we made there.
View the Archives » Image Gallery »The great monuments, the famous food. Some of it we loved (gelato!), some of it, maybe not.
View the Archives » Image Gallery »A visually stunning city, great culture and good food.

Oh Canada, Steph’s home and native land. Our penultimate stopover before Mexico.
Tony’s home and a great road-trip through some of the best sights in the country (and the world).
View the Archives »We’re here, making a go of life south of the border. Good food, great people and a huge country to explore, with our dogs.
View the Archives »Just a quick stop to renew our Mexican visa. Good Mayan ruins, so-so food and an interesting three days.
All we did was have lunch and wander around a market, but it was still an interesting little visit.
Image Gallery »A quick two-week visit was enough to answer some questions, but it mostly served as a way to whet our appetite for more!
