We’re NEW here…

We’re a couple of twenty-something Brits who swapped the 9–5 life for life on the road… just two backpacks, a few flight tickets, and a whole lot of spontaneous decision-making. The kind of memories you simply can’t buy!
It all started with what was meant to be a 3-week trip to New Zealand for a family wedding… which somehow spiralled into a 9-month backpacking journey through Southeast Asia.
And now? We’re back at it again. Safe to say, we’ve well and truly caught the travel bug!

✨ Honest, budget-friendly travel tips
🗺️ Destination guides & itineraries
📍 Interactive maps to help plan your own travels
🌱 Life lessons from living as nomads
🎒 And the occasional behind-the-scenes chaos

Hi, we’re Emma & Tyler 👋
A travel-obsessed couple who met on holiday whilst in Tenerife and haven’t stopped exploring together since!
We want to inspire you to see more of the world, step outside your comfort zone, and live a little more boldly. Through this blog, we’re sharing everything we’ve learned—travel tips, destination guides, and advice to
help you plan your own adventures
with confidence.
We’re not luxury travellers — we like to think of ourselves as boujee backpackers. We’re all about travelling smart, stretching our budget, but treating ourselves when we can. Whether it’s a comfy bed, a sunset cocktail, or a proper shower… we believe in balance!
If you’re curious about living more, spending less, and seeing the world on your own terms — you’re in the right place. No question is too much to ask, and we’re always happy to help where we can (in DMs, comments etc.)
So whether you’re planning a big trip, dreaming of quitting your job, or just here for the stories — we’re so glad you’re here.
Let the adventure begin 🌍
– EM & TY (ITSEMANDTY)
