Where Are We Now?

Is Egypt Worth Visiting?

Our train ride across Egypt’s Sahara Desert from Giza to Aswan was the start of our incredible trip along the Nile through Upper Egypt. At Abu Simbel, the colossal statues of Ramesses II carved into rock left us speechless. The Valley of the Kings is the largest complex of rock cut tombs in the world and one of the biggest archaeological sites in the world. We loved exploring deep into the tombs and seeing the ancient art on the walls. And seeing King Tut's Mummy! Luxor wowed us with temples that have stood for thousands of years, while Karnak Temple amazed us with its sheer scale - columns towering everywhere. Check out the full adventure - our latest video and blog post takes you right into the heart of Aswan & Luxor!


Welcome!

Hello!

We're Chris and Emilie, and we slow travel around the world. We rent apartments in big cities, spend time in rural areas, hike, and camp - all with a goal of experiencing everyday life in new places. We plan our own schedule, keep costs low, and stay flexible, so if we enjoy a place, we can stay longer.

Check out our video or read our blog post on slow travel to see our approach to exploring the world!
