We're Carlo and Florence.
We left Ireland in 2013 with no plan beyond figuring out how to make money online and see the world.
Thirteen years later, we’re 79 countries deep and still going strong with a desire to hit that 100 mark. This is where we share the honest version: the places worth (or not worth) the flight, the ones that surprised us, and the practical stuff that makes long-term travel actually work.

Watch Along
We film pretty much everywhere we go — the good, the awkward, the challenging and the food comas. Full vlogs on YouTube.
Countries we can’t stop talking about…
1. Japan
Layered, weird, nostalgic, extremely unique and endlessly worth returning to. We’ve only been once but we feel like our bucket list is longer than it was before we visited (despite ticking so much off).
2. China
Nothing prepared us for the scale of China. From the Great Wall to streets that never sleep, it’s a country that keeps outdoing itself in so many different ways. They’re living in the future and we loved experiencing a small part of that.
3. Vietnam
For the food, the pace of life, the kindness of locals and how far your money goes. We keep coming back.
