A travel journal written by four hands · Adam & Soraya
Travel
to come together.
Stories from the road, to change how we see the communities we visit — and the people maps forget.
Encounters
The people maps forget.
To us, a country is faces first. Every encounter has its own page: who, where, what we shared — and the story they appear in.
The map of encounters
A map of faces, not flags.
We don't colour in the countries we've "done". Every dot is someone. Hover to read their words, click for their page and the story where we met.

Places
By country, but people first
About us
Hi! We're Adam and Soraya.
We love backpacking, and we travel the world looking for genuine experiences and unforgettable encounters. In this journal we share our stories, practical tips and favourite finds, hoping to inspire your own travels.
Two travellers writing together, one story at a time, looking for the people maps forget.
Letters from the road
One story, one encounter, one address. Once a month.
No "top 10" lists. Just what we lived, written together, from wherever we're sleeping.

Live along the road? Tell us where.
When we pass through your town, we'll let you know. A coffee, a roof, a place not to miss: that's how this journal fills up.
