the beauty of a life of travel
There’s nothing like having your bags packed, boarding passes printed and passports ready for the journey ahead! It makes everything come into perspective, and it reminded me of how hungry my inquisitive mind, body, and soul was for new encounters. Although summer days are numbered in Ireland and most of Europe, there are plenty of places where the […]

At first, most of my dream destinations and places used to originate from classic adventure books. With the help of Jules Verne, Rudyard Kipling and Mark Twain they took me from dry prairies and erupting volcanos to the deepest depths of the ocean. After that, I discovered colourful images in glossy travel magazine pages, but nowadays I […]

Even though we have been travelling together for over 16 years, we’ve bearly scratched the surface. And, since our little one arrived into this world three and a half years ago, it’s all about embracing the art and engraving the importance of travelling slower and deeper. That’s why we made a conscious decision to spend […]

Happiness comes in many shapes and boarding a plane on a Saturday morning with two travel comrades by my side to one of Europe’s prime surf destinations, is unquestionably one of them. We have not visited France’s iconic southwestern town, and we have not marvelled at its iconic sandy beaches hemmed in by cliffs, yet […]

All we ever wanted – for as long as I remember – was to drive along the Portugals rugged West Coast with nothing but ocean on one side, with a few essential pieces of clothing in our backpacks, with no hotels to check-in or out and with our future unwritten. We have talked and dreamed […]

We rolled out of the car, stood up and slowly stretched towards the dark sky. Sun was still slightly below the horizon as we made our way towards the bay. It was Sunday morning, and instead of sleeping in and lazing around the rented house, we got up early, had light breakfast and drove to Mont Saint Michel […]

When I look back on the past decade of our travels, all I see are little city breaks scattered throughout the years. Instead of burning all the vacation days on one big, proper trip, we favoured spontaneous voyages around Europe and Ireland. One thing I was surprised to discover I found real satisfaction in planning […]

If you share our love for travel, we invite you to dive into yet another exciting journey where you can meet new people, try fresh foods and have a memorable time. I can’t explain the whole experience of the sensory overload we had a chance to undergo in Essaouira. At least not yet. But I know […]

Getting out into the wild and being surrounded by birds, trees and all living things is the best remedy for body and soul. It’s our sanctuary and happy place all in one. We believe that every wild and beautiful place we visit lets us experience living in the moment, mould us into who we are […]

Our journey to Morroco was fuelled by enthusiasm, curiosity and a little bit of uncertainty about what to expect. Shortly before our departure, we read a useful few travel posts regarding Marrakech and had mixed feelings. Instead of writing about the amazing architecture or distinct culture, fellow travellers decided to concentrate on sexual harassment, verbal attacks, […]

My profound romance with mountains started well before I actually had a chance to climb one, and it was well before I had a chance to see one with my own eyes. Just like with travelling and surfing, it was through the pages of beautifully written mountain books and hair tingling adventure stories that I […]

Upon our arrival, Glenbeigh village greeted us with bright blue sky and warm sunshine. Good weather makes a massive difference for travelling around Ireland, particularly in early spring, so we literary jumped from joy and rushed straight to nearby Rossbeigh beach. The ocean is the closest thing to my heart, and as we walked down […]

When I imagine Portugal, especially its coastal regions, I can easily see ourselves living there. We could grow crops to make hearty vegetarian stews, keep a few chickens, surf every day and let the gentle wind ruffle our hair. With three road trips around different parts of the country already under the belt, our attachment […]

Having lived and worked in various countries by the age of 23 (think Sweden, Latvia, Scotland and Ireland), we quickly discovered the pleasure of travel and were shouting from the rooftops about every new stamp added to our passports. Soon enough, we realised that we always needed to have a trip on the horizon to […]
