Craving Adventure's User Profile - Atlas Obscura

Craving Adventure

We are Tom and Zi, the creatives behind Craving Adventure. We met while travelling through SEA and fell in love. Once that trip was over we both had to go back home to opposite sides of the world, but we couldn't stand the distance so found a way to make it work. We quit our jobs, packed up our bags, sold what didn't fit into said bags and hit the road to travel full time. Through our blog we bring you all the insights on a life of travel, exploration and adventure.
