About Us
Hi there, we are Alec & Eve!
A 20-something couple who love to get out and see the world. We have been together 4 years and our relationship began right at the start of the pandemic! Maybe this is why we had such itchy feet once the world opened back up, and we were eager to explore it together, leaving the hedonic treadmill of life behind!
After a year of planning we packed up everything at the start of 2023 and set off on our first adventure – backpacking around South East Asia! We had a life changing time on this trip and it reconfirmed that this is what was missing in our lives. After some money troubles (we had planned to work teaching our in Asia but met some hurdles…) we headed home to recoup and set off again mid 2024.
We both absolutely love being in nature, sunrise walks, sunset hikes, yoga, furry friends, buddha bowls when we’re being healthy, pizza when we’re not… and we’re coffee addicts, so feel free to buy us one if you feel like you’ve gained anything here. We’d be ever so grateful indeed!
I was born in France to a French mother and English father, who happened to be living in Singapore at the time. We then moved to Hong Kong for a few years, before moving to England for the majority my childhood. Travel, music and sports have always been passions of mine. When I look back travel blogging makes perfect sense; from a young age I was always up for learning new languages and had memorised all the flags in the world (very cool I know!) Now I aim to visit them all too, committing my life to exploring exciting new cultures, forming meaningful connections with brilliant humans (and animals!), and making memories to tell the future grandkids.
I was born and raised in South East England. As a child, I used to spend hours pouring over books about Earth, space and the oceans – fascinated by what was ‘out there’. As I got to the end of my schooling, I knew that the traditional university path wasn’t for me, although I wasn’t sure what exactly I wanted to do. I threw myself into working and spent all my holiday days on various trips out the country. In 2019, I left on my first backpacking trips and travelled around Europe, New Zealand and the Philippines. These trips blew my mind and I knew I wanted to get out and explore as much of the world as I could! I absolutely love experiencing new cultures, seeing totally different walks of life and learning about the world.
