Our ITINERARY & a week of planning! 5 week countdown to our BIG TRIP!...

5 weeks to go till we fly outa Australia with our one-way tickets, with no real plans in place past 6 weeks lol...crazy?

Nah, I like to call us adventurous.

AND If I am being exact, by the time this Blog and Vlog are loaded it will be 4.5 weeks!


With such a short countdown we had a lot to-do this week, so here is our week at a glance and then 🥁... our Itinerary.



This weeks TO-DO's

  1. We started packing up our home so that we can AirBnB it whilst we are away, this will help cover our home costs and also provide us additional income & cash whilst we are away travelling. So far we already have the whole of January booked and are hoping to book some extra dates in December and onwards from there!! FYI. (We have actually done this every year, which has funded our travel adventures on many many occasions and one of the reason we can actually travel so regularily)

  2. I started reaching out and sending 'pitch emails' to work with potential 'Hotels, Resorts & Airlines', creating content for Social Media, Blogs, Vlogs ect. In great news my emails have been landing really REALLY well, and we have already booked several properties (and maybe even an airline 🤞) to work with. I knew this time of year would be difficult as it is peak season, so I am thrilled with this response so far!

Our Itinerary - so where to first?...


So some may think we are a little crazy but we really only have a plan for the first 6 weeks.


With all that is going on in the World it is almost impossible to predict which Countries will be open by the time we travel, AND if they reopen, will they allow visitors from the Country we have just been in?....


So the idea is to really fly by the seat of our pants, put faith and trust that our adventures will land us somewhere beautiful and safe and we discover places that perhaps we hadn't thought of or would normally not have ventured.

There are definitely other options of course, and we would love to go to Europe but we don't really want to venture there in their winter so that is off the cards for now.
