About Us.
Our mission is to share our vegan/vegetarian, nomadic lifestyle with you and to inspire you to explore the world by foot. Affordably.
Nomadic. Vegetarian. Hikers. Let’s adventure together.
Avid adventurers. Global circumnavigators. Hikers.
We’re Chris and Steve. We’ve sold it all, retired from Corporate America, packed our two carry-ons, and fleed out into the world.
Chris loves to share hiking, housesitting and vegan-eating tips, while Steve shares his Forex knowledge. Together, we’ve visited over 62 countries and all 50 states.
The secret to our affordable lifestyle is through strategic accommodations via housesitting and Airbnb stays. We throw in travel hacking to make things interesting.
