Happy Friday, and a very merry Christmas Eve eve! Before we delve into my best of 2016 post, I’ve been meaning to do this one for a while – a huge photo essay of our 18 month trip around the world!
Throughout 2015 and 2016, we spent three months exploring South East Asia followed by over a year in Australia (mostly working but we still saw a fair amount!), a few weeks in New Zealand, and a quick stopover in Hawaii before ending our trip with a few weeks in Canada!
This has been a real struggle getting our experiences down to 50 photos. I’ve even taken out pictures of me holding a koala and driving a boat (not at the same time otherwise OF COURSE that baby would have stayed!). And I even didn’t include any phone photos from Songkran even though I LOVE some of the pictures I got.

It’s worth pointing out that I DON’T have a fancy camera – the first few from Vietnam are from my old Panasonic Lumix point & shoot (paired with horrible weather they’re not stellar quality, to say the least) and the rest are from a second Lumix, a bridge camera. So with that in mind, I think my photography skills have improved no end and I’m really actually so proud of these ones!
