We’ve been sharing our travels and writing about the deeper lessons of travel since 2011. Thank you for joining us on the journey!

Our website is free from advertising and we accept no products, sponsored travel or sponsored posts. This is extremely rare in the travel content space! We do this so that you can feel confident our travel advice is honest and not influenced in any way by travel companies or their financial backing.
This means we shoulder all expenses, including the professional time and costs of maintaining this website, tech needs and all of our expenses associated with generating this content. While we share our expertise with the intention of inspiring and helping others to travel, the financial responsibility of doing this work is real.
If you have enjoyed our storytelling over the past 15+ years, if you have been inspired by our travels, or if you have traveled deeper because of our recommendations and expertise, please consider making a financial gift to support the work we do and our website.
Regardless of whether or not you can make a gift, we are grateful you are part of our community of travelers! You can also support our work by following, liking and sharing our content on your social channels. You can find us on Facebook, YouTube and LinkedIn.
From the bottom of our hearts and the top of the world, thank you.
Charish and Joel
