Whether you are the adventurous type, looking to explore all Sri Lanka has to offer – from its many tea plantations, scenic train journeys and its numerous temples – or prefer to simply relax on one of the Island’s beautiful beaches, finding out a little bit about the country’s history…

Meet Tam & Paul

Hi, we’re Tam and Paul, a British couple who have spent the last nine years travelling almost full-time, mainly around Europe. We previously spent our summers working on campsites but have worked for ourselves since 2021, giving us the freedom to travel whenever and wherever we choose.

For the last 3 years, home has been our little motorhome. Firstly we owned Gulliver an Elddis 196, after Tam’s obsession with all things literature-related. and now we travel in our new Mobilvetta K-Yacht 86 named Malbec. We love exploring new towns and cities, finding beautiful park-ups on the beach and hidden gems in nature. When not in the camper, however, we still love those luxury breaks, and therefore, our aim is to bring you the best of both worlds, plus plenty of recommended reading lists to inspire your travels!
