Originally from Nashville, Tennessee, we got married June 2013 and quickly caught the travel bug! We started “travel hacking” & finally decided we wanted to #travel for one year. After 2 years of saving $ and over 2 million miles and points, we sold our cars and apartment and left home January 10, 2016. We started this #travelvlog to share our experiences with friends and family, then decided we really liked vlogging and traveling! So we extended our 1 year trip to now FOUR years :) Now we have a goal of traveling to 100 countries before 2020! We are incredibly thankful to do something we love every day. :)

If you're couple you can ride it with group of people for only 10 dollars each from Palompon Leyte , of course you need to bring your own food in which you can buy in the market and in grocery store located in the heart of the town, Bring your own camping tent as well for free overnight otherwise you can rent a tiny cabin on the Island.
