WHY PHOE TRAVELS?
As we Millennials get older and leave the idea of backpacking behind, travel becomes less about the $10 a night hostels and cheap beer, and more about creating an authentic but comfortable travel experience that doesn’t blow your budget.
With more of us than ever before working remotely, we need to strike a balance between adventure, comfort and the basic necessities to function, without overspending.
I’m here to help you get the best bang for your buck, allowing for extended periods of travel with or without work, and minimising the sacrifice required to make it happen.
WHAT’S PHOE TRAVELS ABOUT?
After 11 years of exploring 29 countries and living around the globe on 3 different continents, 2017 is the year to put fingers to keys, to share the expertise and knowledge I’ve developed to help others achieve their travel dreams.
Preferring slow travel to explore cultural nuances, local food and avoiding the crowds wherever possible. My philosophy is less ticking off countries and more genuine exploring.
Seeking to inspire those who are looking for something different in the quagmire of travel blogs, I’m here to show you how budget doesn’t always equate to fleas and food poisoning. Let me help you find those special, unique places that the droves of tourists haven’t flocked to yet.
WHO IS PHOE TRAVELS?
Growing up being Unschooled, before it was cool (we just called it being home educated back then), my family and I had many adventures around Great Britain. Living in Wales, Northern England and finally the fields of Herefordshire where I spent most of my childhood. But, we never went overseas.
Somehow or another, I was determined from the age of 14 to travel the world. Finally, I left my homeland for the first time aged 16, after being bought a flight to The Netherlands as a birthday present, and I never looked back.
From 19 I lived a semi-nomadic life in England, New Zealand, Australia, USA, Iceland, France and Turkey.
Working for a world renowned musical instrument dealer, one of the oldest businesses in Australasia, an MMA gym, a rural Icelandic guest house, managing a hostel, and Stewardessing onboard a super yacht, amongst many other things.
After years of research, reading and practice, I decided it was time to share the knowledge that I spent hours upon hours looking for in one easy click with PhoeTravels.com.
