We've had a lot of questions about our trip; what our favourite (and least favourite) places were, what life was like on the road, what it's meant for our relationship and our plans for the future. So we've put together our reflections on travelling for 10 months!

Our reflections on the highs, lows and most memorable parts of our 10 month round the world trip!

Hey Friends! If you've left things a little late this year and still need some Christmas Pressies, look no further...

We LOVE these cute and functional beach towels by Dock and Bay. They are lightweight & packable but still full size towels, dry super quickly, and don't let sand stick to them!

These are the perfect Aussie beach towels :)
(Dan's already added one to his Christmas List, since he misplaced the last one).

SURPRISE! We are back in Australia!

We have had an amazing 9 months exploring Europe, the Middle East, and Africa, and have had so many awesome experiences. It’s a little earlier than we originally planned, but now we’re super excited to be coming home and starting our new lives together in Brisbane.

We hope you guys have loved following our trip so far, and stay tuned because we have so much still to share from our adventures (we’re very behind on our blog posts, photos and stories and there’s so much more to come 🙂).

Looking for something a little different to add to your Europe Travel Itinerary?

How about SLOVENIA! We only had a few days in this spectacular country, but it's in on our Top 10 Countries to return to :)

Something you should definitely try during your visit, aside from visiting the picturesque Lake Bled, is WINE TASTING (incidentally one of our favourite pastimes). Slovenia has a long history of winemaking and is home to some unique wines... learn more about them in our post :)

Where do you want to return to??

Hey everyone! We're having an amazing time relaxing and getting some sun in Phuket.

But we are completely shocked at how expensive it is to withdraw money from an ATM. They all charge 220 baht ($10.60) per transaction- how ridiculous!

Luckily our ING debit card REFUNDS all transaction fees, or we'd be broke already. We have saved over $550 on fees this financial year, that's less than 4 months!

Just a heads up for anyone heading to Thailand this summer, consider getting an ING Orange Everyday bank account (or another that refunds ATM fees internationally) to save yourself some $$$.

PSA over ... Now back to our cocktails (and Dan to his footy) 😉🍹
