2013, at a party, I told a guy I would love to travel again. But more importantly – I wanted to travel PERMANENTLY. He listened intently, nodded his head and said: “That sounds like you have thought this over quite thoroughly. But if that’s what you want, why don’t you just do it?”

Travel has always been a big part of my life. Some of my earliest memories involve the cabin of a Boeing 747 en route to Canada, where I spent every summer poring over my grandmothers extensive National Geographic collection.

We’re a couple in our 30s: N is me, and B is my husband. I’m generally the planner, the cook, the attempter of foreign languages, the photographer, and the primary writer. B is usually the social one, the driver, the technologist, the masseur, and the pack mule.

I was born in Bulgaria and I have spent about two thirds of my life there. For the past decade however I have been living in Germany. I’ll admit this makes for a strange combination – from the chaotic and hot Eastern Europe into the calm and orderly Western part of the continent.

We ended our 9 to 5 lifestyle in June 2014, packed up our house, loaded up the car, and started traveling! We have been on our journey for ten months now and are currently in South East Asia. Our adventure has no definitive end and we will continue as long as we have the funds to carry us.
