We are a bunch of friends held together by a shared love of travel and discovering the world. Sitting still is not our thing, we are always off somewhere, we fuss over our plants at home and we love getting together to cook and try out exotic cuisines. The mountains are our great love (even if keeping our little group at the same pace is sometimes a superhuman task), along with wandering in nature and collecting experiences. I have been keeping journals since roughly the moment I first held a pencil, so I talked the rest of the gang into starting this blog. We share what we find out in the world, our own stories, tips for trips and a pile of experience that might come in handy.
