The Dream
We are Ivana and Gianni, a digital nomad couple who broke their old habits to live a new, healthy lifestyle on the road. Since both of us have always felt happy and inspired while exploring new destinations, there were no doubts to start this adventure together. After we travelled extensively through Europe and went for a short trip to Morocco, we wished to know more about people and cu
lture on the other continents. Well, it was not that easy to get them know well in two weeks, and not that easy to take more than two weeks of holiday in a row in our previous jobs. The Plan
Moreover, at that time (2012) we needed definitely more finances to start up a long-term travel. All seemed as a vicious cycle, until we took a decision and set up a plan: if we are able to quit smoking and save money, we will do a round trip around the world. What helped and pushed us forward was the motivation of being free of addiction, and free to work on what we love, which is photography and nature. While being in the frame of mind of saving, travelling, keeping kind of discipline up on us, we also stopped drinking alcohol and changed our diet, as it just simply went hand in hand with previous decisions. The Outcome
After a successful “puff-free” period, in summer 2013 we quitted our jobs (in case of Gianni they made him redundant just in perfect timing and by doing this they just anticipated his decision), sold and gave away everything, packed our carry on luggage (8 kilos each) and bought a one-way ticket to Bangkok. For now we have started in Thailand, with the aim to move slowly around Southeast Asia. Regarding financing the travel, we will use the savings wisely, budget as much as we can and earn money using our skills of photography, passion for nature and yoga. The Mission
On our journey, we would like to show you places where you can replenish your spirit, take good care of your body, eat and drink decent local healthy food and beverages, and last but not least, we will try to inspire and develop your creative part. As we know that to open a new and unpredictable chapter of your life is not a simple step, we will give you some suggestions that worked for us. Please 'like us' and visit our travel blog
