  • We’re back in South Africa 🇿🇦 once again, after spending the past month traveling around Madagascar and Reunion Island! 🇲🇬 🇷🇪 It was an epic adventure but we’re ready to slow down and find our rhythm again. It feels so good to come back to Cape Town, a place that already feels like home for us. We’re now based in Sea Point, where we can walk everywhere and enjoy an outdoorsy lifestyle. Love watching epic sunsets and walking on the beach everyday. 🌅🌊🐚 We’re also very excited to finally homeschool Kaleya this term 📚! It definitely suits our nomadic lifestyle better. We’re no longer tied to a hectic schedule, with crazy mornings, traffic commutes and homework. Kaleya is also really independent and driven, so I think it’s about time.💪 Follow us for more insights to how living in Cape Town is like! We’ll also be traveling around South Africa, so stay tuned! 👋 Hi! I’m Nellie, a travel writer and adventurous mum. I share all I’ve learned about digital nomad family travel here.

  • We just spent a week road-tripping across Réunion Island — chasing waterfalls, hiking active volcanoes, and swimming at spearmint-blue beaches surrounded by lush green mountains. 🌋🏝️ The island is a French Overseas Territory, lying between Madagascar and Mauritius. I’ve heard it called the “Hawaii of Africa” and it’s honestly stunning — but also very built up, busy with people (about 850,000!), and feels surprisingly like mainland France rather than an Indian Ocean escape. 🇫🇷 Highlights of Reunion for us: 
✨ Piton de la Fournaise (one of the world’s most active volcanoes) 
🌿 Cirque de Salazie and Cilaos 
🏖️ L’Ermitage Lagoon (perfect for snorkeling and sunsets) 
💦 Grand Galette (like something out of a dream) Would you visit? Or do you prefer your islands a little more wild? 🌺 👋 Hi! I’m Nellie, a travel writer and adventurous mum.

  • Jan 2010. At the end of our Latin America backpacking trip, I decided to move to Spain to start a new life with my then-boyfriend (now husband). 💻 I went all out and worked my ass off, spending 12hours/day writing, pitching to magazines, blogging everyday, emailing advertisers and connecting with other bloggers. 💶 This was when my career really took off. I got published in my favorite magazines like Wend, Travel + Leisure, TNT Magazine, International Lifestyle and The Straits Times. I grew my blog’s readership to over 100,000 monthly pageviews. ✍️ Within months, I was able to make around $2000/month from sponsored posts, display ads and writing assignments for magazines. That was enough to sustain a comfortable life in southern Spain then. ✈️ Press trip invites also started pouring in — from tourism boards in Thailand, Jordan, Alaska, Bhutan, South Africa, Papua New Guinea and Palau. I was traveling on all-expenses paid trips almost every month and getting paid to write about them. It was truly a dream come true. 🌎 For 5 years, I was a brand ambassador for small-group adventure tour operator @gadventures, a company I absolutely love. I traveled with them on incredible trips that I wouldn’t have afforded myself, like expeditions to Antarctica and Svalbard, overlanding in Southern Africa, trekking in Nepal, Mongolia and New Zealand. 📚 I also achieved my lifetime goal of writing guidebooks for @lonelyplanet, having co-authored their latest Mexico and Singapore books. @dkbooks also commissioned me to write an Amsterdam handbook as well as a kids travel book titled Explorers.

Jan 2010. At the end of our Latin America backpacking trip, I decided to move to Spain to start a new life with my then-boyfriend (now husband). 💻 I went all out and worked my ass off, spending 12hours/day writing, pitching to magazines, blogging everyday, emailing advertisers and connecting with other bloggers. 💶 This was when my career really took off. I got published in my favorite magazines like Wend, Travel + Leisure, TNT Magazine, International Lifestyle and The Straits Times. I grew my blog’s readership to over 100,000 monthly pageviews. ✍️ Within months, I was able to make around $2000/month from sponsored posts, display ads and writing assignments for magazines. That was enough to sustain a comfortable life in southern Spain then. ✈️ Press trip invites also started pouring in — from tourism boards in Thailand, Jordan, Alaska, Bhutan, South Africa, Papua New Guinea and Palau. I was traveling on all-expenses paid trips almost every month and getting paid to write about them. It was truly a dream come true. 🌎 For 5 years, I was a brand ambassador for small-group adventure tour operator @gadventures, a company I absolutely love. I traveled with them on incredible trips that I wouldn’t have afforded myself, like expeditions to Antarctica and Svalbard, overlanding in Southern Africa, trekking in Nepal, Mongolia and New Zealand. 📚 I also achieved my lifetime goal of writing guidebooks for @lonelyplanet, having co-authored their latest Mexico and Singapore books. @dkbooks also commissioned me to write an Amsterdam handbook as well as a kids travel book titled Explorers.
