About Us
Hey there, fellow
wanderers, friends
and travel enthusiasts!
We are RAIF and VY!
The hubby and wifey behind this travel blog. As first-generation Australians with roots stretching from Lebanon to Vietnam, our unique backgrounds and shared love for exploration brought us together.
Our love story began in high school, and after navigating the ups and downs of wedding planning during a global pandemic, we finally said "I do" on the third try. But our story doesn't stop there. After a year of marriage, we stood on the brink of a new adventure - building a house. Yet, fate had a different plan, and in the midst of it all, we made a bold decision: to pack up our lives and embark on a year-long journey with dreams of making travel our full-time gig.
​
We're not the champagne-sipping yacht travellers (though we'd love that someday), nor are we penny-pinching backpackers. Instead, we embrace the middle path, finding joy in travel without sacrificing life's little indulgences. Our travel style is far from rigid itineraries; we're champions of whimsy, following our hearts and passions, or where an exciting housesit may take us.
Our mission is simple: to show that unforgettable journeys don't require color-coded spreadsheets or hour-by-hour agendas. Sometimes, the most enchanting memories are created when you let the road unfold before you, embracing each twist and turn with open hearts and open minds.

Meet Vy: With eight years in the world of nail artistry, Vy's creativity shines even beneath the polish and glitter.

Amidst all the tech, Vy's heart belongs to our four-legged friends. She's a dog lover, and every encounter with a furry pal on her travels becomes an instant highlight.
