Meet the Nomads

We’re David and Diane, a couple in our 50s who decided that life is more about experiences than chasing a corporate ladder. David spent years as a management consultant for a large firm before realizing he’d rather explore the world than help a big company earn its next billion. Diane, a graphic artist, has always had an eye for the interesting, whether it’s something quirky, historic, or just out of the ordinary.

We’ve been on the road since 2005, taking our time to explore different parts of the world and appreciate the beauty around us. In 2014, we packed up and moved to Australia, where we spent some time soaking in the sun and getting a feel for life Down Under. Then, in 2016, we made our way to Europe, where we started to really dig into the culture, the history, and the day-to-day lives of the people we met. From there, we headed to Asia in 2017 and 2018, taking in the rich diversity of the region, its vibrant cultures, and its fascinating landscapes.

Now, we’re back in Europe and Turkey, continuing our journey and sharing what we find along the way. We’re not about ticking off tourist spots or rushing from one destination to the next. Instead, we prefer to take things slow, meet new people, and immerse ourselves in the communities we visit. Whether it’s a hidden alley in a quiet European town, a bustling market in Turkey, or a countryside path that leads to an unexpected view, we love finding the stories that make each place unique.

We invite you to join us on this journey, as we share our experiences, the highs, the lows, and everything in between. If you enjoy discovering new places, hearing about life on the road, or just need a bit of inspiration for your own travels, we hope you’ll find something here that speaks to you.
