  • Having been a travel writer and blogger for over 15 years, Iโ€™ve been privileged enough to travel to over 150 countries across 7 continents. Here are the countries that I most wanna go back to: 

Kyrgyzstan ๐Ÿ‡ฐ๐Ÿ‡ฌ 
I was invited to this Central Asian country for the first ever World Nomad Games and wow did it blow my mind! 

Namibia ๐Ÿ‡ณ๐Ÿ‡ฆ 
With its mammoth sand dunes and out-of-this-world deserts, Namibia was the highlight of a long overland trip I did in Southern Africa.

Georgia ๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ช 
I ate my way through Georgia (the country not the US state!) with one of my besties 10 years ago and its food really left a deep impression on me. 

Uzbekistan ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ฟ 
On my month-long Silk Road journey, Uzbekistan was my favorite stop for its spectacular Islamic architecture and incredibly welcoming people.

Oman ๐Ÿ‡ด๐Ÿ‡ฒ 
We brought Kaleya to Oman on a road trip when she was 2 years old and it remains one of our favorite places.

Tanzania ๐Ÿ‡น๐Ÿ‡ฟ 
In 2008, we spent 3 months volunteering in a village in Tanzania and it was truly life changing. I canโ€™t wait to bring Kaleya back to meet our friends and students there!

Antarctica ๐Ÿ‡ฆ๐Ÿ‡ถ 
Undoubtedly, cruising to Antarctica was the best trip Iโ€™ve done. Itโ€™s truly the final frontier and I really want my daughter to experience it!

Nepal๐Ÿ‡ณ๐Ÿ‡ต 
Nepal completely blew me away with the tallest mountains in the world and the spiritual temples and shrines dotted all over Kathmandu.

Uganda ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ฌ 
Till this day, coming face to face with a Silverback and his troop of gorillas remains the most intense wildlife experience of my life.

Sri Lanka ๐Ÿ‡ฑ๐Ÿ‡ฐ 
I spent only a week in Sri Lanka for a conference but the sneak peek I got was enough to make me wanna return soon!

  • One of my new year resolutions for 2026 is to travel more intentionally. 

This year, I want to add more purpose, meaningful experiences and educational elements to our travels as a digital nomad family.
 
We havenโ€™t planned any trip for this year yet except except for a few weeks in Ethiopia and then Singapore to visit family. In spring weโ€™re hoping to do a long road trip to Namibia, Botswana, Zimbabwe and Zambia. 

Are you planning to travel more in 2026?  #newyearsresolution #worldiscalling #insta360

2025 was a rollercoaster ride of highs and lows: hereโ€™s a look.

HIGHS:

๐Ÿ‡ฟ๐Ÿ‡ฆ Fell in love with our new home: Cape Town, South Africa!

 ๐Ÿ’ป This year I got offered more travel writing opportunities than usual! I wrote several travel guide series for @telegraph and @mexiconewsdaily.

๐Ÿ“– Published another two guidebooks for @lonelyplanet

๐Ÿ‡ฒ๐Ÿ‡ฌ Brought Kaleya to where we honeymooned: Madagascar! Thrilled to find it hasnโ€™t changed too much and it remains one of our favorite countries.

๐Ÿ“š We finally started homeschooling with Kaleya and realized itโ€™s easier than expected! 

๐Ÿช‚ Brought Kaleya paragliding in Valle de Bravo ๐Ÿ‡ฒ๐Ÿ‡ฝ as a birthday gift. She loved it!

๐Ÿฅพ Kaleya did the longest hike sheโ€™s ever done: 8km from El Chalten to the base of Mount Fitzroy in Patagonia.

๐Ÿ‡ช๐Ÿ‡ธ Went back to Spain with our friends from Mexico and celebrated Reyes Magos with them!

LOWS

๐Ÿ’ป AI severely affected my blogsโ€™ readership and my income, thankfully I have other work to fall back on.

๐Ÿ˜” Said goodbye to our friends in Mexico who have become like family to us!

 ๐Ÿ›‚  Failed to get our South African visas as we didnโ€™t have the right documentation during our  interview in Madrid. Moved to Cape Town anyway, even if itโ€™s just for a few months!

๐Ÿถ  Sadly we had to leave our dog Brownie with family in Spain, as pet import rules in South Africa are very strict.

I am SO ready to start 2026 on a clean slate!

Having been a travel writer and blogger for over 15 years, Iโ€™ve been privileged enough to travel to over 150 countries across 7 continents. Here are the countries that I most wanna go back to: 

Kyrgyzstan ๐Ÿ‡ฐ๐Ÿ‡ฌ 
I was invited to this Central Asian country for the first ever World Nomad Games and wow did it blow my mind! 

Namibia ๐Ÿ‡ณ๐Ÿ‡ฆ 
With its mammoth sand dunes and out-of-this-world deserts, Namibia was the highlight of a long overland trip I did in Southern Africa.

Georgia ๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ช 
I ate my way through Georgia (the country not the US state!) with one of my besties 10 years ago and its food really left a deep impression on me. 

Uzbekistan ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ฟ 
On my month-long Silk Road journey, Uzbekistan was my favorite stop for its spectacular Islamic architecture and incredibly welcoming people.

Oman ๐Ÿ‡ด๐Ÿ‡ฒ 
We brought Kaleya to Oman on a road trip when she was 2 years old and it remains one of our favorite places.

Tanzania ๐Ÿ‡น๐Ÿ‡ฟ 
In 2008, we spent 3 months volunteering in a village in Tanzania and it was truly life changing. I canโ€™t wait to bring Kaleya back to meet our friends and students there!

Antarctica ๐Ÿ‡ฆ๐Ÿ‡ถ 
Undoubtedly, cruising to Antarctica was the best trip Iโ€™ve done. Itโ€™s truly the final frontier and I really want my daughter to experience it!

Nepal๐Ÿ‡ณ๐Ÿ‡ต 
Nepal completely blew me away with the tallest mountains in the world and the spiritual temples and shrines dotted all over Kathmandu.

Uganda ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ฌ 
Till this day, coming face to face with a Silverback and his troop of gorillas remains the most intense wildlife experience of my life.

Sri Lanka ๐Ÿ‡ฑ๐Ÿ‡ฐ 
I spent only a week in Sri Lanka for a conference but the sneak peek I got was enough to make me wanna return soon!

One of my new year resolutions for 2026 is to travel more intentionally. This year, I want to add more purpose, meaningful experiences and educational elements to our travels as a digital nomad family. We havenโ€™t planned any trip for this year yet except except for a few weeks in Ethiopia and then Singapore to visit family. In spring weโ€™re hoping to do a long road trip to Namibia, Botswana, Zimbabwe and Zambia. Are you planning to travel more in 2026? #newyearsresolution #worldiscalling #insta360

Happy New Year everyone! ๐ŸŽ‰๐ŸŽŠ๐Ÿฅณ 2025 was a rollercoaster ride of highs and lows: hereโ€™s a look. HIGHS: ๐Ÿ‡ฟ๐Ÿ‡ฆ Fell in love with our new home: Cape Town, South Africa! ๐Ÿ’ป This year I got offered more travel writing opportunities than usual! I wrote several travel guide series for @telegraph and @mexiconewsdaily. ๐Ÿ“– Published another two guidebooks for @lonelyplanet ๐Ÿ‡ฒ๐Ÿ‡ฌ Brought Kaleya to where we honeymooned: Madagascar!
