About us
For those of you who don't know us, nice to meet you, we are Dan and Bailey!
We are just another couple of crazy backpackers, likely, not so different from yourself! Our list of places to see around the world is constantly growing and our passion for living an exciting life full of adventure and culture fuels us!
We are just your regular twenty-something backpackers. We travel on a budget, we like a good party, and we are suckers for a funny travel story. In fact, you may have already ran into us in a hostel, chatting with fellow travelers over a beer (we like to talk as much as we like to write!)
We are from different corners of the world ourselves, Daniel is from Australia and Bailey is from Canada. Naturally, we met while travelling! As a couple, our biggest common interest has always been travel and our sense of adventure.
What do we love most about travel?
The adventure! The thrill that comes along with experiencing something totally new. We are constantly pushing the limits and stepping outside of our comfort zones, whether that means taking local transport in a developing country or jumping out of airplane.
The amazing thing about travel is that everyday is a new experience for us. Learning about unique cultures and seeing some of the most beautiful corners of the world makes life that much more exhilarating.
Why is our blog called “Destinationless Travel?
We think that the best kind of travel is endless, or without a final destination. Travel is all about the journey, not just the destination.
As we like to say, “you can’t get lost if you don’t have a destination!”
What are some of your travel highlights?
We both had the most amazing time backpacking in South America. Literally, we still talk about it everyday and are planning to go back. Somewhere between celebrating Carnival in Rio in Brazil, skydiving in Bolivia, scuba diving on San Andres Island, and hiking the Torres del Paine we fell in love with continent.
That being said, we have had some incredible travel experiences all over the world. Off the top of our head some of our favourites would be:
- Hiking the Acatenango Volcano in Guatemala
- A food tour in Hong Kong
- Scuba diving in Cenotes in Mexico
- Bungee jumping in Colombia
- Seeing wild crocodiles in Australia
- An alpine hike in New Zealand
- Checking out the Perito Moreno glacier in Argentina
- Swimming with wild Sea Lions in Peru
- Watching the sunset on the Salt Flats in Bolivia
Where are we now?
After selling our home in New Zealand (a self-contained campervan that we lived in for nearly four months) we packed up our backpacks again and headed to Asia!
We spent a month in Sri Lanka where we drove around the country in our own tuk-tuk for 27 days!
Now, after completing a few weeks in Mexico and then Patagonia, we are in Colombia! We have slowed it down a bit and plan on spending a couple of months here traveling and working before heading off again!
You can follow our journey on our Instagram, Facebook, or subscribe to our emails (at the bottom of this page!)
Where are we going next?
Right now, we actually have no idea! This is very strange for us as we are normally booked up several months in advance. But not right now.
We are just going to take it one step at a time and see where we end up.
Who knows at this stage…you’ll have to follow us to find out!
Thanks for following us on our adventures!
