“Comparison is the death of joy.” Sunday’s are rarely relaxing for us. Both of us have weekend jobs. ⛵️ Alex teaches sailing classes and Dev works at a restaurant and teaches fitness classes. Sometimes we just want to sleep in and do nothing but as we’ve learned, the grass is allllways greener! Our friends who do have 9-5 jobs and have their Sunday’s off tell us they miss having random week days off or the flexibility to take off for trips like we do! ≈ This is our Sunday reminder to not compare your path to anyone else’s. You are exactly where you need to be. Find your joy right now. ✨ . . . . . #WhirlwindTravellers #Wanderintwo #twotravelers #travelcouples #globetrottingcouples #globecouples #travelwriters #travelbloggers #findyourjoy #travelinspiration #coupleslovetravel #nomadtravels #nomadcouple #couplestravelgoals #creativetravelcouples #inspiredtravelcouples #intravelist #backpackersintheworld #wearebackpackers #backpackerlife #canada #canadatravel #canadianliving #tobermory #lessismoreoutdoors #couplesthathike #earth_deluxe #welivetoexplore #travelcanada

❄︎ One of the best parts about travelling in Japan in the winter was seeing fluffy snow monkeys chilling in their very own hot springs! Yes this is a real thing and it’s totally doable! There were soooo many of them just hanging out, and Dev went crazy because there were so many baby monkeys 😍🐒 ∶∶∶∶∶ Our post: How to See Snow Monkeys in Jigokudani Monkey Park has everything you need for a magical snowy day trip. Transportation options and schedules, prices, what to expect, what to wear AND the coolest GIF Alex has ever made of the snow monkeys swimming.

☼ We’ve ditched any notion of what this page “should” be. We’ve started genuinely sharing our weird selves, trying new things on this platform, posting candid (un-posed) photos and discussing our process with you. We are finally finding our unique voice. ✧ Here’s what we know defines us: Actual, honest advice. Thoroughly researched, credible blog posts. Thought-provoking travel pieces to inspire and educate. Openness about our struggles and triumphs. We are sharing our quirks. Staying down to earth. Committing to complete honesty with pictures, facts and experiences. Connecting with and relating to you. ✧ We are still discovering and changing, and we are so grateful to share that with you! . . . . . #WhirliwindTravellers #Canada #stonylake #canadian #canadianliving #cottagelife #cottagelifestyle #canadiancottage #canadianlife #travelcouple #travelwriters #inspiredtravelcouples #creativetravelcouples #globecouples #globetrottingcouples #nomadcouple #twotravel #wanderintwo #travelduos #coupleslovetravel #couplestravelgoals #stonylake #peterborough #ontario #beautifulcanada #thedreamytravels #intravelist #lessismoreoutdoors #liveauthentic

✧ This is the first day of our very first backpacking trip. We had no idea that what started as a typical post-graduation trip would turn into one of the main passions of our lives. Travel is weaved into our identity and we love that our friends always ask us: “so where are you going next?” It is who we are and what we do. Lots of people ask us: how? How do you just leave your home, your whole life behind for months at a time? And the ONLY thing we can say is that we just. did. it. We committed to the dates, bought the tickets, told people we were leaving. The fear that people have around these kinds of trips is that they are going to “miss out” on things at home, that everything is somehow going to change. Well, we’re right here to tell you that every time we come back, nothing has changed. Except you. And that’s the only thing that matters. So just go for it! ✧ . . . #WhirlwindTravellers #asia #thailand #bangkok #bangkokthailand #BKK #girlstravelingasia #southeastasia #southeastasiatravel #travelsoutheastasia #nomadcouple #wanderintwo #backpackers #backpackersintheworld #wearebackpackers #travelgirlsgo #wearetravelgirls #travelstyle #wetravelgirls #girlsdreamtravel #sheisnotlost #passionpassport #girlsmeetworld #girlabroad #girlstraveling #girlsthatwander

✧ What Instagram Accounts Inspire Us? ✧ ≈ If you’re ever feeling unsure of who to follow or connect with on this platform, you’re not alone! The Insta vs Reality is a very real thing for some accounts. And we wanted to share some tips on what to think about when looking for authentic and genuine accounts to follow. Remember this is just what we do because keeping it real is very important to us, but its not what YOU have to do! ↡ . . . 4. Engagement: Do they respond to their comments genuinely? Do they comment on other people’s content with real responses? Do their comments on our own page feel authentic to what we’ve posted? Or is it cookie cutter comments, by a bot or where one could have copied and pasted the same thing on a bunch of different photos? We really love the accounts that engage with us and others with unique comment that is tailored to the specific photo! . . . #WhirlwindTravellers #Myanmar #Mandalay #waterfalls #southeastasia #southeastasiatravel #seasia #seasiatravel #myanmartravel #myanmartourism #travelcouples #creativetravelcouples #inspiredtravelcouples #yourtravelcouples #couplestravelgoals #coupleslovetravel #globecouples #globetrottingcouples #lessismoreoutdoors #mapiful #adventurecouples #couplesadventure #waterfall_lover #backpackersintheworld #wearebackpackers
