Jason
Hey there, fellow adventurers! I’m Jason, and my journey into the wild wonders of the world began with a bold move straight out of the Anthony Bourdain playbook. Inspired by the man himself and countless travel YouTubers whose exploits I devoured, in 2016 I decided to bid adieu to the corporate grind at the age of 39.
Since then, I’ve been on a relentless pursuit of the extraordinary, fueled by a thirst for exploration and a hunger for experiences that transcend the ordinary. From bathing majestic elephants to diving with giant manta rays and even locking eyes with the legendary Komodo dragons, my travels have been a whirlwind of adrenaline and awe.
Now, together with my wife Daravy, join us as we navigate the globe, one exhilarating escapade at a time. Let’s uncover the hidden gems, savor the local flavors, and embrace the spirit of adventure together!
Don’t forget to subscribe to our YouTube channel, where we document our travels and share the excitement of our journeys with fellow adventurers like you!
Daravy
Chumreap Sou/Sou-sdai! (Hello in Khmer)
I’m Daravy, a spirited Cambodian soul with a passion for exploring every nook and cranny of this wild world.
My journey into the realm of travel began fashionably late at the age of 30, all while juggling the chaos of a full-time job.
Little did I know, amidst the hustle and bustle, I’d stumble upon the love of my life – my now-husband (handsome guy pictured above), who’s as much of a travel fanatic as I am!
Fast forward through a whirlwind of adventures, I bid farewell to the 9-to-5 grind and embarked on a new chapter in the land of stars and stripes – the good ol’ USA – alongside my beloved hubby. Now, both north of 40, we’ve made it our mission to traverse the globe, capturing every moment, mishap, and memory on this blog and our trusty YouTube channel.
We hope that you’ll subscribe and follow along with us, because life’s too short for dull adventures! 🌍 ✈️
