We are Joelle and Ryan, two ordinary people with families and busy lives. As a result, we need to make every moment count when traveling. Once off that plane, we hit the ground running. We plan every detail of our trips and often do all the driving. That allows us to go off the beaten path, which is a great way to gain authentic cultural experiences. We encourage you to turn down that single-lane dirt road, wander the tiniest villages, grab a brew at the local pub, sample the local cuisine, and walk down that ancient alley. When we explore beyond our comfort zone, extraordinary adventures occur. As a result, we make memories that are cherished for a lifetime.
As you get to know us, you will discover our passion for castles. We have visited 432 castles, and the list keeps growing. Our Castle Hunters page is dedicated to our castle adventures and is a place to learn more about these magnificent structures.
