If 2016 was the year of busting our hump, 2017 was the year to enjoy the fruits of our labor. Does this mean we slowed down? Heck no! Once we finished our Nat Geo book, we explored eight countries, bought a vintage RV, road tripped 20,000+ miles, flew around the country on a book tour,…
Our DĂa de Muertos journey begins in Mexico City, a capital rich with history and culture. Though curiously Day of the Dead was never on CDMX’s list of festivals–until last year. When the James Bond Spectre movie released worldwide, with an opening scene of a DĂa de Muertos parade through the Centro Historico, it had…
We received the very first copy of our National Geographic book just a few days before our trip to the Olympic Peninsula….a featured destination in Ultimate Journeys for Two. We were dying to return and hike the temperate rain forests, tidepool our favorite beaches, and spy the glaciers and islands from Hurricane Ridge. Then we…
Ever since we rented a campervan in New Zealand in 2013, we knew that someday we would have one of our own. The freedom to explore in any direction, find a beautiful place, and call it home…to have the comforts of our own bed, closet, and kitchen and still get to travel every day…this was…
“You guys should write a travel book for us,” said the head of partnerships at National Geographic Books. Our jaws dropped in unison. “No one else has honeymooned as extensively, and if anyone knows about couples travel…it’s you two.” As flattering as that was, he couldn’t have been serious…this was writing for National Geographic, the…
Following the snaking slot canyon, swirled with red, purple, and gold sandstone, we entered the 2000-year old city of Petra. Once a trade hub linking China, India, and southern Arabia with Egypt, Greece, and Rome, this Nabataean kingdom was sophisticated, exotic, and in a league of its own. Temples, amphitheaters, and mausoleums were carved into…
We’re touring the country to share the love of travel and inspire others to satisfy their wanderlust! We truly hope you can join us at any of the following events. Let us know which travel talks, Nat Geo book signings, and parties you can make in the comments below. If you can’t make any of…
The Cayman Islands is not what it seems. Three flat islands? Nope, they’re the peaks of an underwater mountain range. Not much culture? It’s one of the most diverse countries in the world, home to over 130 nationalities. Offshore banking? That influx of wealth creates one of the highest standards of living in the Caribbean….
There is a goat on the roof, as we take the local bus between the volcanoes and beaches of Flores, Indonesia. His feet shuffle across the metal with each curve in the jungle-lined road, though no one seems to notice–except the villagers. Not too many people pass through the center of this Nusa Tengarra isle,…
Setting foot on our seventh continent, traveling to our 50th country together, starring in a Microsoft commercial, speaking at the Smithsonian, signing a book deal, housesitting in Europe, North and Central America…2016 was a big year in HoneyTrek Land! We’ll admit, we’ve been so busy we have not been the best about blogging, so here…
SNEAK PEEK: NORWAY! Mushing 15-kilometers into the Norwegian tundra with our team of huskies. Hang on!
