Last Updated: October 2026 Victoria is full of hidden gems, and whenever we had the chance to escape Melbourne, we loved heading into the countryside to discover somewhere new. For the Australia Day long weekend, we decided to explore Glenrowan and the King Valley, a beautiful part of North East Victoria that we hadn’t spent much time in before. We booked a...
Last Updated: October 2026 Visiting Villa de Leyva is like stepping back in time. With its whitewashed colonial buildings, cobblestone streets, beautiful mountain backdrop and enormous main square, it’s easily one of Colombia’s most charming towns. But is Villa de Leyva worth visiting on a day trip from Bogotá? Having made that exact journey ourselves, my...
With a total of 62 national parks to choose from, the United States is packed with natural wonders worth exploring. That’s especially true for nature lovers, keen hikers; or if you’re simply after an unforgettable time in the wilderness. With so many great ones to choose from, it’s tough to decide which parks to visit. So little time, right? Plus, very few of...
Last Updated: October 2026 Who doesn’t love a nice glass of Prosecco? For me, Prosecco brings back memories of summer, Italy, long lazy afternoons with girlfriends and sunny days spent sipping something cold and bubbly. Just hearing the word Prosecco puts a smile on my face! And I do love a good dry Prosecco. So, when we discovered that Victoria had its very...
Last Updated: October 2026 When we booked a long weekend in Glenrowan, in Victoria’s beautiful High Country, we had no idea that we’d end up discovering one of the region’s most colourful attractions: the North East Victoria Silo Art Trail. Our original plan was simple: explore the nearby King Valley, enjoy some delicious local wines and relax in...
If you’ve been following Free Two Roam for a while, you’ll know that we spent the end of 2018 and most of 2019 on the road, travelling. We celebrated our first travel anniversary on the Uyuni Salt Flats in Bolivia. What an amazing place to celebrate it too, I might add! Travelling full time was something that we’d wanted and had been planning to do for a while. We...
Last Edited: September 2026 Lake Titicaca sits at approximately 3,810 metres above sea level and covers more than 8,000 square kilometres, straddling the border between Peru and Bolivia. Over the years, Lake Titicaca has become a very popular destination for visitors to the continent and has arguably become somewhat “over touristy”. However, it’s still worth seeing...
Long-term travel had always been a dream of ours and, in October 2018, we finally took the plunge. We left our jobs, got rid of most of our processions, put the rest in storage and hopped aboard a one-way flight to Delhi. We spent the next thirteen months traveling but sadly it all came to an end rather abruptly in November last year when I broke my right leg! Long...
Easter Island or Isla de Pasqua is a small island in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. Well known for its famous Moai statues, Easter Island’s location makes it one of the most remote islands in the world. It’s a place that many people dream of visiting and I’d always wanted to go there myself. Since we were already going to be in Chile, there was no better time to...
As soon as we jumped off the bus in Vicuña, we began to relax. Looking around, we straight away knew that we’d made the right choice to head to the Elqui Valley. We’d had a rather stressful time in Chile so far, crossing the border from Bolivia and arriving in San Pedro de Atacama, just days after the largest political unrests since Pinochet had begun. We’d had...
