Welcome to our corner of the internet. We're a couple who love travel, but with a difference: we're taking the slow way round the world and seeing it on foot.
This is a place to find out about hiking trails, city strolls, mountain adventures - everything. It's our experiences that we want to share with you, and give you some slow travel inspiration.
You can find out more about us and why we walk here. And you can follow us on social media to find what we're doing up-to-the-minute - come say hi, won't you?
