About

Traveling is our way of life. Traveling only when we are “on vacation” is an outdated concept for us. We travel constantly, and we work, we write, we eat, we take photos, we simply live life fully, while we travel. I am not going to lie, finding a balance is a difficult challenge and something we struggle with constantly, but our priorities are clear: we want to see the world and experience places more fully than just one vacation at a time.

In this blog and in my
Instagram you will find the type of person that will go out of her way for a good cup of coffeeβ˜• . One that stops to admire big trees and beautiful flowers every time there is one along the way🌳 . One that takes food (and drinks) seriously, and considers eating a central and necessary piece to truly understanding any place on earth πŸ₯‘. One that cherishes the sun and water (particularly the sea) above almost anything else 🌞. One that struggles with packing, and (real story) can end up packing two different shoes as a pair πŸ‘žπŸ‘Ÿ.Β  One that will choose an Airbnb based on its deck views πŸŒ„. One that considers working out totally necessary for her mental health and will always find ways to squeeze a good sweat wherever she is πŸƒβ€β™€οΈ… and afterwards will lay on the beach and drink scotch & coconut water πŸ₯₯🍹


Hope you find value on our content! Please send over any recommendations πŸ™‚

A bit more about us:

  • Carla was born and raised in Caracas Venezuela. Fled, as many others, due to the political situation in 2008 (to the United States).
  • Alan was born and raised in Mexico City. Work brought him to the US in 2011. We met at new employee orientation at Microsoft- sooo romantic πŸ˜‚
  • (For now) we are based partially in Seattle (USA), partially in Tulum (Mexico), and partially in the rest of the world (mostly out of airbnbs) #digitalnomads we are!
  • Remote work is a must for us. Carla works forΒ Samasource, Alan works for BetterUp
