Blogs of Travel

We are David and Michelle, a Spaniard and an Aussie currently located in Munich (Germany), full-time engineer and teacher. We met through our love of photography. One of our main passions is to travel and to capture through photos the vibe of a place, the spirit of people and the essence of cultures in this wonderful world. We would like to share our travel and photography experiences with you via this blog.

This site is the culmination of years of dreaming and planning. In August 2012, we’re making the ultimate change: we’re packing our bags and hitting the road (and the skies) for an extended backpacking trip where we plan to travel our way through Asia and Europe.

Your Window to the World, 30 Days at a Time

Throughout our relationship, Kym and I prioritized travel at the top of our free time list. The world is accessible to those who choose to see it, yet many don’t. Every experience meant learning new cultures, different value systems, and a change of scenery. We learned that not every culture emphasizes fame and fortune, and it struck a chord with us.
