I'm the guy, but who am I?

I'm a traveler, I'm an adventurer, fitness enthusiast and business entrepreneur... but how did I get here? 

I was born and raised in Auckland New Zealand. Being raised by my single mother and both grandparents my entire life it has given me a different perspective and appreciation for all things in life. Listening to the stories and taking in the wisdom of old people like my grandparents is something I cherish. 

Going through my school years I wasn't an over achiever, I simply passed my necessary grades and participated in sport without making a name for myself. 

Growing up as a child I had the unfortunate position of being over weight and the fat kid in school, which in hindsight I'm grateful for the lessons it taught me. 

It's what drive me to join a gym as a teenager to change my life and ultimately start a career pathway. 

Leaving school I got work and simply enjoyed having money to spend for a while, before realizing what I wanted to do. Studying personal training and fitness opened up a career door, and following my studies at the age of 20 I got employed by New Zealands leading fitness gym corporation, Les Mills. Operating my own successful business as a PT for a couple of years my life was on an upward trend. 

After reaching a point where I needed change I decided to take the desk chair and manage a gym instead, I felt the leadership challenge is what I wanted. 

Over this entire period I was in a relationship which ended suddenly and painfully. As a means of coping I expanded my horizons and interests, which lead me to becoming addicted to outdoor adventures and exploration, a new appreciation for history and culture. 

I felt I needed to do something big, so I booked myself a big holiday, but more of an overseas adventure than a holiday. 

I had to abandon my job at the gym and I left the country, bound for Europe for 2 month of travel. I didn't know how long to go for or quite what to expect, I was frankly nervous and scared. 

Once I got there everything changed, not just my nerves but by the end of my trip my entire outlook on life was different. What I appreciated, what I wanted, my horizons and goals. I was hooked on the feelings and knowledge travel gave me, and so an addiction began. 

I believe travel is the best education in life money can buy. 

Following my return I met my partner, she is my everything and we connect like I've known her my whole life. 

We hit the ground running together and haven't stopped, 

Only a year into our relationship we had travelled several times, pursued goals and even moved countries. 

We moved away from New Zealand to our neighbour Australia, setting up our lives in the Gold Coast. 

We both share a passion for travel, which lead us to both working in the industry as travel agents. 

We now have the fun job of building holidays for people. 

We continue to expand our horizons together, taking on everything life has to offer. 

We travel, we explore and adventure, we have fun and we have decided to start sharing this in our blog and YouTube channel, just another way we are expanding our goals. 

We have many plans ahead, we hope you all enjoy hearing about them as they unravel.

Signing out. Micky. 

Who are we?

Me Myself and I ........ Oh and Him.

Welcome to the blog of all blogs... Where we hope to write, share and inform you of everything life has to offer. Our adventures, experiences, struggles and lives laid out for the world. So you to can join us, take what we safe to heart, or just for a laugh. As long as once you have read our entries you walk away with something new.

Who am I? 

A twenty three year old woman finding her place in this big big world. My story started in a town called Pietermaritzburg; South Africa. Where I spent 7 years of my life growing up before my parents decided they no longer wanted to bring their family up in a country that has been broken for many many years. So they seeked a better life in a country on the other side of the world, and ended up in New Zealand. We landed in Auckland headed to the west and made it our home. 

I attended primary and intermediate school then headed to high school, when life really started to form. High school is a interesting place, so much happens so much changes and we all start to develop into the adults we want to be. 

After high school comes the first big girl choice I made, whether to further my education and go to University, have a "gap year" or go straight into some form of a job. My path took me to University where I studied a Bachelor of Education in the hopes of becoming a Teacher. Growing up I have always loved children. I have two younger cousins who absolutely adored me, would mimic me and do as I do, family friends would count on me for baby sitting and I always obliged. It was this that led me to feel that I have an influence with children and that I wanted to use this influence in a positive way. The third year of my degree life happened... and my future was no longer as I pictured. I graduated, however decided on a different path, this path lead me to the Hospitality Industry. 

Two years past I was single and still living with the rentals. I had decided that I had enough of being a single pringle and wanted to find a man to add to my life... So as you do... I jumped on to tinder and started the swiping movement. Left, Right, Left, Left and Right again. I was a bit skeptical at first as my first few encounters were guys wanting to get in my pants, and while this is not necessarily a bad thing, It just wasn't what I was wanting. After a while I came across a potential, and that potential has turned into a best friends and my partner in life. It was one of those relationships that after the first date, you knew he would be apart of your life.

So a year down the track and after many adventures within that year, we decided to jump the ditch and move our life over to Gold Coast Australia. One thing leading to another we decided to start blogging and share our adventures with the world. The blog will be about absolutely everything and anything, entries will be written by myself and him, to give two points of views, both female and male. 

I hope that you all take something from the things we write, whether it just be a laugh, a recommendation or something more.
