Hi! We're Emma and Reece

We’re just a normal couple (plus our cat, Ruckus) sharing honest travel stories, budget-friendly tips, and our journey toward vanlife. Right now, we’re preparing for a future where the three of us can live simply, explore slowly, and enjoy the freedom of building life on our own terms. Our hope is that by sharing our adventures, we’ll inspire you to chase your own version of freedom too.

We’re Emma and Reece 👩‍❤️‍💋‍👨 We’re Emma and Reece 👩‍❤️‍💋‍👨🩷 We’ve been together almost 5 years after meeting in our previous call centre job and we’ve been inseparable ever since 😍😍 We went travelling for the first time after 6 months of being together, a trip that was meant to last 18 months but we only reached 3 month due to covvvyyyy 🦠 But we never gave up on our dream of travelling and we were finally able to get our backpacks back on and finish what we started 🎒✈️🌏 We fell in love with travel and we are now chasing the freedom lifestyle, working from anywhere in the world and living life on our terms 🚐❤️🛵✨🚀🌅 We have some pretty incredible goals, which gets us sooo excited because everything we say we are going to do, we always do! 🥂🙌🏼 We hope to create a little community where we can share our life, tips, itineraries, travels stories for anyone who cares to listen 👫🏽📚✍🏼✈️ And yes there will be copious amounts of cat content as we’ve just become cat parents 😭🐾 We also have a YouTube channel, click the link in our bio and follow our adventures (don’t forget to subscribe) 🎥 THANK YOU FOR BEING HERE ❤️ #travelcouple #travelcouplegoals #travelcouplelife #livinglifeforus #creatingfreedom #freedomlifestyle #travelvloggers #traveltheworld #bettertogether #doingitforus #allweneed #createalifeworthliving #createalifeyoulove
So, before we get back to sharing some travel cont So, before we get back to sharing some travel content…. I (Emma) just wanted pop on and share some truths because yet again I’ve got myself into a ‘social media’ scroll hole, killing my creativity and making me feel what I have to share isn’t good enough 😤 It’s funny because I love social media, I love to watch people’s journeys, I love writing content and sharing what I’ve been up too 📸 But why am I so reluctant to stick with it and stay consistent?? That’s gunna have to take some digging, some reallll self coaching 📝 Since I’m the main ‘creator’ on our social media (it’s just not really Reece’s thing) I’ve honestly been struggling to find my feet, struggling to find our ‘voice’ and our ‘vibe’ especially because I’ve been ‘trying’ to figure out the Instagram/social media world for a while now, having started as a ‘coach’ sharing my own story, it’s now changed to ours ❤️‍🔥 Which unfortunately turned into an excuse and resulted in us not posting very much at all 😭😭 lol if you’ve been following me for a while, you’ll probably be thinking how the bloody hell I haven’t figured it out yet, and why are you explaining yourself again, we’ve heard it all before 😂 And trust me I know, but I’m not giving up, because when I’ve got it, when I’m in the flow… I bloody love it 😂🫶🏼❤️‍🔥 So for now it’s about getting out this hole, rolling with it, post what I wanna post, share what I wanna share, not worry about things being perfect or having a certain aesthetic 🍃 Just throw myself into it, learn as I go 🫡 With CONSISTENCY being my focus here 📌 My phrase for the year is ‘don’t give up’ and that’s NOT what I’m going to do ❌ It’s time to grow some little lady balls, share the content I wanna share and start enjoying it all again ❤️❤️ Thanks for staying along for the ride guys, I know I’m hard work and constantly up and down (it’s the Aries in me) 🤪 But this is my line in the sand, this time it’s going to be different 👊🏼❤️‍🔥 #contentcreatorproblems #growingalways #believinginmyself #notgivingup #thisismytime #doingitforme #lovewhatyoudo #trusttheprocess #trustyourself #letsgetit
