Welcome

We are Rich and Elizabeth Kerian.  We are passionate about traveling and have been traveling together since 2006.   We left the USA in August 2013 to backpack around the globe and uncover adventures from our menu of options.  We’re using our “menu” approach to life as we travel around the world. There are lots of options on the menu…the fun is picking from the list and seeing where life takes us.  Our daughter, Adelaide, was born in 2017 and has joined us in our travels around the world. We hope you enjoy reading our Blog and keeping up with us!

In 2018 we published the book, The Couple's Guide To World Travel. If you've ever dreamed of traveling the world with your spouse or partner and wondered how to do it, this book is for you.
