About us
A blog website for our friends, family and followers to keep tabs on our shenanigans!
Hi! I’m Amanda, and this is my daughter Anya. We’re travel junkies!
It is perhaps not surprising that, as it has just been the two of us since Anya was six months old, Anya and I have very similar interests and love to spend time in each others company – something I am very grateful for. It is also no surprise that we share two passions – travel and books!

Need Some Inspiration In Your Life?
Ever since I can remember, all I have wanted to do is travel.
As a child I would browse atlases, tracing countries and drawing out their flags. At school, Geography was my favourite subject. And at University, I would cut out images from travel brochures to decorate my student room.
It was once I completed my degree that I finally packed my backpack and took off with a round-the-world ticket and working visas for both Australia and New Zealand. And since then, I have travelled as often as time and finances would allow, having also spent several years living in Dublin where I worked at a backpackers hostel.
Travel allows you to understand so much more of the world and is an education in itself. Through travel, I have met so many different people from a wide range of countries, and experienced so much more than staying at home or going on more conventional holidays
And so, with Anya, we were never going to be a conventional family and we were always destined to do things that little bit differently – particularly when it came to ‘holidays’. And because of this, Anya is as comfortable getting on a plane to a new country, wandering around a new city, and being around people from all walks of life as she is jumping on the tram into the centre of her home city.
