Together We Go
Приєднався 19 жов 2016
God created the world, now we’re going to explore it.
Together We Go is our adventure travel blog with a twist of faith.
We met through kayaking and have a real love for adventure sports and being outdoors. Anything that can push us to our limits, whether its hurtling down a mountain on bikes or sailing on a lake. We’re always looking for new experiences and this blog is our way of sharing this journey.
Since going to church, one particular part of a verse from the bible, spoke very strongly to us:
“I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.”
John 10:10 (NIV)
For us this means exploring and experiencing a rich variety of what life has to offer.
Come and share the journey with us.
