About Us

 

WELCOME TO THE TRAVEL QUANDARY!

We are an Australian couple with curious tastebuds and an adventurous streak itching to delve into cities different to our own. One armed with cameras and the other lugging a black and white wardrobe. We’re not the atypical couple who met in Australia, quit our day jobs and then booked a one-way ticket to “The World”. Our love story transpired in London and our mutual love for travel unravelled. We decided that we genuinely want to e-document our travels and experiences (the new age travel diary) for ourselves to look back on when we’re old and grey. But we also sincerely want to contribute to the travel community’s plethora of guides, tips and inside knowledge.

JASMINE

A self-confessed materialist with a penchant for white T-shirts. Jasmine is most content when the sun is shining and dessert is on its way. She is capable of striking up conversations with strangers, will happily share her opinion (particularly of your outfit) and doesn’t always get the punchline straight away. Jasmine is particularly adept at balancing a spoon on her nose and justifying the purchase of another pair of shoes.

BEVAN

The more logical and rational one of the duo, Bevan functions best after having consumed at least two lattes. He is forever devoted to his beloved Western Bulldogs, searches for eclectic shops around the world and enjoys learning about a new country through its culinary offerings. Bevan possesses some pretty sweet dance moves and photography skills. He is forever trying to convince Jasmine that she doesn’t need another pair of shoes.

About Us | about us 1

Why Are We Doing This?

Because we honestly love to travel. We get itchy feet and suffer wanderlust when we’re sitting still for too long. Together, we will push ourselves to discover how far we are willing to go to explore the unknown, to broaden our minds, our views and our wellbeing.

Our mission is to provide a unique perspective on travel. We’ll travel to cities known and unknown to unravel the mysteries of our destinations. We’ll explore a city’s culture through its history, food and people. We want our adventures and experiences to become a high-quality source of information that has actionable value for our readers so that they are armed with the knowledge to make informed travel decisions and feel inspired to explore the world.

So join The Travel Quandary on the next adventure as we seek out the answers that have not yet been found!
