The call to simplicity and freedom is a reminder that our worth comes not from the amount of our involvements, achievements, or possessions, but from the depth, and care which we bring to each moment, place and person in our lives.
— Richard A. Bower

Life is so much simpler when you stop explaining yourself to people and just do what works for you.

I do not exist to impress the world. I exist to live in a way that will make me happy.

Different ways of saving money to travel for a longer time:
➡️🔒✌🏼

🏠 Rent out your place
If you have your own house or apartment, consider putting it for rent while you’re abroad. If your place is situated in a popular area, you can easily earn between €1000 to €1500 a month (or even more).

👩‍💻 Work remote
I’ve met so many people working remote.
I think that people are changing their way of thinking that working 5 days a week at an office won’t make you more productive. I hope this will allow people to work from other places. How cool would it be to work a few days, a week or a month abroad while you discover the place on your free time?

🛋 Sell things you don’t need
We sold almost all of our furniture before we left. I also sold many of my clothes at a market and earned €250. I see it as a plane ticket or a weekly stay in Colombia. If you start to think like this you’ll look at money in a different way.

👨‍👩‍👧 Stay with family for a while to save some extra money
Some people do it before the trip and others do it after. We’re going to stay with Raymonds parents when we get back until we find our own place to stay. This will really help us out.

🏚 Anti Kraak
If you live in The Netherlands and you’re lucky you might be able to live in an anti kraak for €140 a month. This opportunity has made this dream of a world trip come true in a very short time.

🎨 Get creative
If you’re a creative person you can sell your art in different forms. It can be through music, art, dance or something else.

☕️ Cut out the weekly coffees
I keep saying this because it’s true. You’ll be amazed how much money you’ll save if you buy less coffee to go.

Los Angeles 🇺🇸

Save for later 🔒

Dreams are serious business in La La Land. Home to Hollywood, this is a city where fantastical thoughts are encouraged. A place with many different faces too: the surfers, skaters, the homeless, the rich and famous.

I have to admit I wasn’t expecting LA to be SO big and so spread out. Next time i’ll rent a car to explore some more.

What we really liked about LA:

🚲 Rent a bike
Even though I would rent a car next time, cycling along Venice beach and Santa Monica surroundings is a great way to explore this part of LA. Everything beyond that is a little too far and also tiring with all the hills. Great workout though.

🛹 Skate park Venice beach
I could spend hours just watching the skaters do their thing. It was awesome and there was a great vibe too!

🛍 Abbot Kinney street
Nice street with lovely boutiques and cute restaurants. Worth the visit.

🎬 Hollywood
When you’re coming to LA for the first, it’s a must to see the walk of fame with your own eyes. When you’re there it’s impossible to miss the Hollywood sign.

🚐 Beverly Hills tour
Normally I’m not so fond of organized tours but this one came to our path and we took the shot. We loved it! We learned a lot about the city and saw so much! You go to the hills where the famous live, Beverly Hills, Rodeo Drive.

📚 Visit The Last Bookstore
Located in Downtown LA, this bookstore reminded me of Harry Potter. It’s so cute and inviting.

The following wasn’t open due to covid but I wish it was:

✨ The Broad
It’s a very beautiful museum of contemporary art. Still bummed it was closed.

🔭 Griffith Observatory
Not only it’s a great spot to see the Hollywood sign, it’s also a gateway to the cosmos! Visitors may look through telescopes etc.

🎬 Warner Bros
This would have made our stay so much more special. To walk through all the places where they make movies and famous tv shows. It just gives you a total different perspective of that world.

Even though we couldn’t do everything we wanted, we still had the opportunity to experience a lot that LA has to offer. Very thankful for that.

OAHU - NEXT TIME 🌺

Save for later 🔒

We spent 17 days in Oahu and still had so much we wanted to do! The choices are endless. 🤩

Next time in Oahu:

⛰ Stairway to heaven
I’ve heard so much about this hike but the weather conditions weren’t good when we were there. The trail was very muddy which meant the hike would take up to 10 hours to complete. After doing so much hiking in Costa Rica we weren’t in the mood for such a hike.
Btw taking the stairs down is illegal due to the bad condition of the stairs and because when you’re down you’re on private territory. Careful, there’s a guard who can give you a fine of $1000.

🥾 Ka’au Crater trail
Heard such great stories about this one too! It has 3 waterfalls and an incredible view! Takes about 4 hours depending on the weather condition. Next time this hike will be a must for us!

💧Mainawili Falls
Yup, also heard a lot about this trail. You can dive from the top of the waterfall. It’s a high jump but pretty amazing 😃

🏖 Cliff jumping at Waimea Bay
When we were at this beach the sea was so rough that the life guards forbid people to jump off the cliff. Worth the visit though, it was beautiful and good atmosphere.

🌴 Haleiwa beach
We went to Haleiwa village and visited some boutiques. Very cute and stylish! But we didn’t know they had a beach. I’ve seen pictures and it looks really nice. Such a shame we missed it.

I think this list can go on. Always nice to have a reason to come back. 🌺🥰🤙🏼 even though I will ALWAYS want to go back to Hawaii for sure!

OAHU favorite spots 🌺

Save for later 🔒

🐠 Hanauma Bay
The most beautiful beach I’ve ever been to in my life for many reasons. Be there early to access tickets ($12pp)

🥾Lanikai Pillbox hike
Hawaii is all about hiking and beautiful beaches. It’s a must you go hiking when you’re there

🌺 North Shore
Coming to Oahu means visiting the North Shore. The vibe is so different, more relaxed & laid back, surfy, cool food trucks, nice boutiques, great snorkling. I recommend staying at the North shore for a few days or weeks even. So much to do and see!

🛤 Koko Head
Our first hike in Oahu and we loved it so much! It was challenging walking all the way up on a railway but the views were insane!

🐬 Kailua & Lanikai beach
Beautiful unique tones of blue. It’s so different from the rest. Being at one of these beaches gives you a top vacation feeling.

🌴Ho’omaluhia Botanical Garden
From the moment you enter the place it feels like another world. It’s the most beautiful botanical garden I’ve ever visited. Nice to know: it’s free!

🦕 Kualoa Ranch
Incredible ranch where you can do different activities. Many movies were filmed here like Jurassic Park, Jumanji, Lost, 50 first dates... it’s an adventure and so much fun! We rented an Raptor ATV.

So many more to add on this list.

To travel — to see and touch unknown countries, to swim in unknown seas, to circle the globe, observing new lands, seas, peoples, and ideas with insatiable appetite, to see everything for the first time and for the last time...
— Nikos Kazantzakis

I think we all share this feeling and crave! Even though I’m living it, I crave for this to last for as long as possible.

What’s the first place you want to go to?

Anytime someone asks ‘how long have you been here? Did you just arrive?’ they open a pandora box and I start telling them the full story with full enthusiasm:
‘We’re traveling since the 1st of October and it has been incredible! We started off on the Greek islands and after...’
I cannot stop and the sparkle in my eyes is contagious because I see the other person feeling the energy and planning their own dream trip in their head. 🤩
This is my passion. Sharing our stories and make other people enthusiastic to follow their dreams, whatever they may be. 💗

It’s interesting that when the same question is asked to Raymond he just answers the question without any extra 😜
But when it comes to our relationship and relationships in general he brightens up and loves to talk about it. Topics like communication, trust, empathy and lessons learned from past relationships. Raymond can go on forever.
This is his passion. He’s very intrigued in analyzing people’s relationships (in any form) and talk about it.
Raymond has also touched many travelers along the way with his way of looking at relationships. 🥰

Example: Today Raymond spoke to a 28yo girl during cooking at the hostel about what he learned from his former relationship and his relationship now. Raymond and the girl had some similarities and by sharing his story, she was more sure that she made the right decision. Ray told her to go for the person she likes for the full 100% because only then you have the chance that the other person will go 100% for you. The girl responded ‘your words are exactly the words I needed to hear’ and she was shinning and thankful. 🙏🏼💫

Don’t underestimate your power of influence by telling your story and what you’ve learned on the way⚡️

How many times hasn’t the other way around inspired you? ☀️
