Welcome back Travel and Photography-enthusiasts!You know the old saying, āthe best camera is the one that you have with youā? Well, for most people, that just means whipping out their phone. But if youāre like me and youāve got a proper cameraāthe kind with real buttons and removable lensesāyouāve probably faced the classic dilemma: Do I bring it and risk it rattling around in my big olā unprotected backpack?
Or leave it behind and maybe cry later when I miss the perfect shot?
Iāve done the latter more times than Iād like to admit. Then came the WANDRD camera sling, which solved all my problems!
ā This convenient 6L sling perfectly tucks my camera (and one additional lens), well protected, while staying totally stylish. When I bring just my camera, I have extra space for my sunglasses + wallet in a separate convenient zippered compartment. Even when I donāt bring my camera, I can use it just as a stylish day-out sling. I have a proper camera backpack, but oftentimes when Iām just going out for a day, I donāt want to lug a large backpack around. The WANDRD Sling is the perfect in-between. Itās water-resistant, well-padded, durable, andādare I sayāactually good-looking. I searched high and low, through the vast wilderness of the internet and every vaguely promising gear blog, and the WANDRD Sling was the only one that ticked all my picky boxes. Iāve now brought it to over 20 countries, from scrambling up ancient temples in Tikal, city-trotting in Japan, to the rugged alien landscape of Atacama, and itās held up like a champ every time! So for those of you photography-enthusiasts on the search for something similar, I wanted to share this delightful finding with you! š Hereās me and my trusty sling, taking on the world one photo at a time šøš

Back with more Japan tips ā courtesy of our many small mistakes š Letās be honest: traveling to Japan is incredible⦠but also a full-on culture shock. Between the futuristic trains, completely foreign language, unspoken social rules, and customs that are completely different from anywhere else weāve traveled, visiting Japan can be overwhelming, even for experienced travelers. On our first trip, we made so many small mistakes. We got confused by train systems (and missed our train), broke...
Back with more Japan Tipsāthis time, Kyoto beyond the temples! Kyoto is one of Japanās most famous cities⦠which also means itās crowdedālike, really crowded. If you just go chasing temples and the Instagram-famous spots, youāll miss the part that makes Kyoto truly special. Thatās why we created a different kind of guide. Instead of a long list of things to 'see', we focused on hands-on, immersive experiences that let you feel the culture and traditions of Japan. From forging your own...

More than anything, travel...
