Emily & Justin

Hi, we're Emily and Justin, and we simply love travelling. 

We met whilst on a volunteering trip to Ethiopia during Uni 9 years ago, and have since been to 37 countries together, including road trips around Italy and Spain, and a motorbike trip to France on Justin's Royal Enfield. 

We've always had itchy feet but the issue is that a holiday for a week or two just isn't enough when you want to go somewhere that’s a 12-hour flight away. 

We have been able to go on a couple of longer trips. In 2015, we took advantage of the long summer breaks during Uni to travel from Mexico, through the USA, and into Canada over 3 months mainly as a road trip and camping. And in 2017, we spent 3 months travelling in South-East Asia (classic) and Australia, which involved a campervan named Carl for the whole of the East coast road trip from Cairns to Sydney. At some point, we hope to add to this blog by writing up the masses of diary notes and photos from our previous trips but that will have to wait for a rainy day, or God forbid another lockdown. 

Aside from travelling, since we met, we have both graduated from Leeds Uni, moved to London and bought a flat. Em did a grad scheme in Local Government before deciding to go back to Uni and do a Masters in Conservation, a year during which she had a gazillion side jobs. And Justin has taken 15 professional exams and worked as a qualified Actuary. In our spare time, we love hiking and music festivals and good food!
