New to the Blog? Well this is the perfect place to start!

We're David and Megan, a newly married couple who travel the world together. We started Half This World Away in December 2015 as a way to document our adventures and show you just how accessible a life of travel can be. Our travels started back in 2013 when we backpacked across South East Asia for 7 months. We then spent 2 years living in New Zealand followed by a year of living in the Czech Republic and exploring Europe.

Our goal? To inspire you to push yourself out of your comfort zone and try something new. Travel has taught us so much over the past few years; from learning to trust strangers, to being able to thrive on the unexpected. When you travel, whether it's a backpacking trip around the globe or a luxury cruise, no two days are ever the same and we have become addicted to the freedom which only travel can offer.

We don't fit into any one box and over the past few years we have experienced all types of travel. From luxury 5 star resorts in Zanzibar to sleeping under mosquito nets in the Malaysian jungle. We love everything from street food to Michelin star restaurants, hiking Asian mountains to sipping sangria in Spain. We want to experience everything life has to offer; and want to share it all with you and provide you with the inspiration and tools to do the same.

If you have any questions then contact us here and we will be happy to help.

The Best of The Blog - to get you started!
