Artur and Michelle, the Venturesomes

We are The Venturesomes!

Slow-travelling the world full-time for the last 4 years, we were inspired to share some of our adventures, tips, photography and itineraries in this blog.

HOW WE TRAVEL

Slowly, and with our eyes open.

Four years of full-time travel have settled into a few habits โ€” they shape every guide, itinerary and photo on this blog.

Slow

Weeks in a place, not days โ€” long enough to know which corner cafรฉ is actually the good one.

First-hand

We only write about places we have been ourselves โ€” and we date everything, because things change.

Through our lens

The photos are ours, shot on the road โ€” the views, the food, and the occasional disaster.

Practical

Real itineraries, real prices, honest tips โ€” written the way we would tell a friend planning the same trip.

ABOUT US

Two travelers, one journal.

We’re Artur, n. engineer turned marketer, and Michelle, n. storyteller. We left the script in 2022 and started writing down what we found. Artur shoots most of the photographs and breaks most of the equipment. Michelle keeps the notes that turn into these entries โ€” and paints small watercolors of the places we love most.

We travel slowly. We pay for our own rooms. We write what we saw, and we date everything, because the world changes faster than we can keep up with.
