Lima, Peru

We’re not big on large cities, and as the capital of Peru, Lima falls into the big city category. We didn’t have high expectations for Lima, and were planning on … Continue reading Lima, Peru

↠ Did you know that the bullet trains in Japan are called Shinkansen? Did you know there’s something called a Japan Rail (or JR) Pass that gives you unlimited travel on them? Or how it works? ↡ We loved taking the shinkansen from one city to the next because it was soooooo fast and convenient. However, the pass is quite expensive and it really depends on where you’re going in the country. It took us a long time to figure it all out. Our latest post will help you make your decision with ease. 🙌🏻 . . . Is The JR Pass Worth It?

✧ Coming home after a long trip can be overwhelming and intensely bittersweet. BUT, it can give you a whole new outlook on your home country and on how you want to live your life! Challenge yourself to keep the spirit of your adventure with you, and let travel affect you way after your return!↡ . . . ↠ Link in bio for our full post: Thoughts on Coming Home and How to Use Your Travels Toward Personal Growth ♡ . . . #WhirlwindTravellers #cominghome #homewardbound #wearebackpackers #backpackersintheworld #travelinspo #besttravel #sheisnotlost #passionpassport #globewanderess #exploreinspired #travelblogger #travelblog #traveladvice #girlboss #femmetravel #darlingescapes #wanderwomeninc #womentravel #wanderwomeninc #wanderlustwomen #adventureculture #wanderintwo #getlostnow #nomadgirls #travelgirlsgo #wearetravelgirls #thewanderingtourist #mapiful

~ Thoughts on Coming Home ~ Anyone who’s ever travelled knows the familiar bittersweet feeling of returning home. Going from discovery of the new and exciting to the regularity of home can be a culture shock of its own. The stark contrast is a painfully beautiful reminder of the mundanity of our day to day lives. Nothing at home has changed, but you yourself feel so different. How can that be? . . It’s a remarkable contradiction, but I think that’s what makes it such a unique feeling. It spurs an appreciation for what you already had when you left, while simultaneously inspiring a need to fly away once more. Travel gifts us with the challenge to keep that invigorating energy and growth with you, and to weave it into your regular life. Don’t fall back into the exact same mindsets and routines, fight the mundanity with any part of you that has been changed by the world outside of your comfort zone. This is why I love travel so much. It continues to mould, challenge and inspire you after you have returned, and I can’t think of anything better to spend my life doing. . . . ↠ Link in bio for our full post: Thoughts on Coming Home and Using Your Travels Toward Personal Growth ♡ . . . #WhirlwindTravellers #travelblog #cominghome #wearebackpackers #backpackersintheworld #womentravel #travelwomen #nomadgirls #sheisnotlost #wanderintwo #passionpassport #getlostnow #happytravels #femmetravel #darlingescapes #travelgirlsgo #wearetravelgirls #wanderwomeninc #explorerbabes #backpackerlife #thewanderingtourist #myanmar #bagan #templehopping #baganmyanmar

☼ Heading to the Philippines? ↠ Bohol + Panglao are the adjoining islands where we spent our Christmas! They are known for their white sand beaches and the famous Chocolate Hills, but our favourite thing was the tarsier sanctuary!!! 🐒Seeing these adorable monkey like creatures was so exciting (especially for Alex as he loves animals). . . ↠We love hearing from you about what you want to read about on our blog!
