About this blog

We booked it, packed it and f****d off as Peter Kaye would say!! Fed up of living our 9 to 5 life in Sunny Huddersfield, West Yorkshire, England. We decided to head off and see what the world has to offer us and live the dream most people wish they had - but never had the gutts to get of their bums and find!! The main reason for setting up this travelpod is so family and friends can keep track of us and know we are safe and well. We hope you enjoy our tales and the pictures of our travels and if these pages inspire just one person somewhere in the world to pack it all in and follow their dream we know that person will not regret it one bit - but they will live with the regret if they dont give it a try. Lots of love Rosey & Ben xxx
