Hi friends, and welcome to my home on the internet! I’m Jay, originally from Australia but now calling Stockholm, Sweden, home. I might not fit the mould of your typical travel blogger with a dramatic tale of leaving everything behind to see the world.
I’m still very much entrenched in the corporate world, clocking in over 80 hours a week as an investment banker. My focus? M&A deals with travel tech companies across the globe (how fitting). Sure, I do like to splurge a bit, but you won’t catch me blowing all my money on designer threads or flashy cars. Instead, most of my savings go straight into exploring new destinations and buying accessories that enhance my travel experience.
Luckily, I’ve found a way to mix business with pleasure. Whenever my work takes me to interesting places, I jump at the chance to extend my stay and dive into the local culture.
This blog won’t only be about luxury resorts or gourmet dining, though I’ll definitely touch on those from time to time—I mean, who can resist? If you’re new to travel, you’re in the right place! I’ll share some tips I’ve gathered from exploring over 50 countries, hoping to inspire you to take your own leap into the unknown.
Bon voyage, and rest assured—I’ll keep the spreadsheets to a minimum. Unless, of course, I’m curating a list of must-visit spots—then Excel becomes my best friend.
