You can’t sit still? There’s a yearning tickle to explore every corner of the world? While you are at it, you want to eat where the locals eat?

We get your vibe!

We’re Joy & Thorsten, a restless couple in San Francisco who loves to travel, eat, and seek different perspectives. Our goal is to visit all 7 continents before our midlife crisis. Joy dedicates all the time she’s not working or sleeping to soaking in new experiences and tasting as much as her stomach can absorb.

We created this blog as an outlet to share these experiences and help plan your next adventure. Our goal is to inspire you to spend less time in front of a screen and more time adventuring. We are here to prove that you don’t need to wait for a vacation to explore; you can work while having fun. Join us in our adventures!
