    ABOUT US
    Hi! We are high school sweethearts from Atlanta, Georgia who decided to take a year off to travel around the world. Together we decided to create vlogs for our journey as a fun way to remember it. On September 15, 2019, we left Atlanta with 3 bags, 2 one-way tickets, and 1 goal of traveling for a whole year. Little did we know, 6 months later we would find ourselves in a nationwide lockdown in India. After spending 5 months in India, we came back to the United States and decided to purchase a 34’ Trawler, dive headfirst into boat life, and kick-off America’s Great Loop.
    The good, the bad, the ugly - and most importantly, the real and real funny. We’re not here to tell you “how it’s done.”, just how we’ve done it. And that whatever it is that’s calling you - the way you’ll do it is much more attainable than it may seem.
    Thank you for following us along our journey!

    What a great trip! I’m a little older than you guys, and Albania was always a mystery country. It was known as a hermit kingdom more or less cut off from most of the world. I’m so glad to see what has happened there and people are visiting with the Albanian people benefitting. I’ve heard that it’s beautiful and has its own riviera. That waterfall is just gorgeous. I’d love to combine a trip to Albania with Moster in Bosnia.

      Albania and Albanian people have had a very very rough existence, especially at the break of Ottoman Empire where a great of the territories were annexed unlawfully by the neighboring countries. So the people in these countries suffered abuse and discrimination, in Albania proper sadly an iron fist dictature set, and for almost 50 years ruled as a lunatic. So only last few decades its where people finally are seeing some sort of relief and feeling the nice smell of freedom.
