Welcome!
So… whilst living in England, we felt we didn’t quite fit into the idyllic jigsaw that we call “adulthood”. We knew there was something missing, add to that a sky full of gloomy clouds and dullness, it was a big recipe for change.
We spent most of our evenings watching travel programs, reading travel blogs and basically adding fuel to our fire for a travel lifestyle. Eventually, our mindset began to change.
No longer feeling trapped, we realised that maybe; just maybe if we wanted it hard enough, we could be adventuring full time too!
Only crazy people would sell their home and belongings, then move to the other side of the world! Leaving it all behind, taking nothing but a backpack each and an open mind – That’s impossible right?!
Well, that’s exactly what we did… then Officer Travels was born!
