Two nomads. Real places. No stock photos.
We've been living out of bags since 2025 — working remotely, moving between seasons, and documenting the places most people skip. Eli is Italian. Tom is from Réunion Island, in the Indian Ocean. Between us we cover Europe, the Atlantic coast, and now the islands where Tom grew up.
We don't do curated. We do honest — the real cost, the route we'd actually repeat, the mistake we made so you don't have to.
Where we've been
Lanzarote - Algarve, Portugal - French Riviera - Courchevel, French Alps - Brașov, Romania - Rome - Mont Blanc -
La Réunion — coming May 2026
Rodrigues Island — coming June 2026
What you'll find here
Real itineraries from places we've actually been. Budget breakdowns that don't pretend €30 hostels are a good time. Packing lists built from two years of living out of carry-ons. And, starting late May, live coverage from the Indian Ocean — La Réunion, then three weeks in Rodrigues, one of the most remote islands most people have never heard of.
Every article on this site is written from experience. If we haven't been there, we say so.


We’re Eli & Tom
