Traveling with a digital nomad partner is a one-of-a-kind experience. But there are some couples who have pushed this experience to a whole new level. And their experience with the lifestyle stands as an inspiration, or at least as a curiosity, for many people. Here are some of the most adventurous nomad couples in the world.
Midlife Road Trip
As the name suggests, Rick Griffin and Sandi McKenna are a middle-aged couple that is showing the world that the digital nomad lifestyle is for everyone. Their radio show, dozens of years of experience in marketing and presenting, and a bucket list that’s half fulfilled are truly something to be admired.
Their adventures took them all over the world from the Wall of China to Alaska and Hawaii and they have done things most twenty-somethings would be squeamish about. They swam with sharks, piloted an airplane, skydived, panned for gold, hiked to the top of the Rock of Gibraltar, and even attended an Alabama football game. Few people have such experience in life as these two so you should go listen to their radio show now.
Different Doors
Charles and Revati are a married couple from Mumbai that has decided to travel the world in a different way than most people. Where some digital nomads rush to Paris to check a mandatory Eiffel Tower pic off their Instagram list, Different Doors is a blog all about the lesser-known and hidden experiences of even the most well-known places.
Their focus is on anything from food, alcohol, and relationship tips, to hotels, wildlife, and much more. Make sure you check out their blog full of smaller adventures with big impacts that you might otherwise miss.
Vagabond Quest
Dina and Ryan have lived a truly well-traveled life. Having lived as digital nomads since 2009, the couple has been to five out of seven continents and has seen everything from the streets of Hong Kong to the Caribbean island of Barbados.
The couple has also maintained a blog, has publications in National Geographic Indonesia, won photography contests, contributed to more than a dozen books, and much more. They might seem just like two minimalist backpackers, but beneath are two people ready to explore the world with all its strangeness and beauty.
Hectic Travels
This married couple, Dalene and Peter Heck, have done more in their lives since 2009 than can fit in two paragraphs. They have taught kids to swim in Bolivia, rode camels in the Sahara, and kayaked in Greenland. And their blog is full of fascinating and nail-biting stories.
But their journey has been cut short due to Dalene’s sudden life-threatening sickness which has since made them re-think their lives and settle down a bit more. They still travel a lot and their blog stands as a testament to a life well-lived, but their pace has, understandably, slowed down in recent years. Dalene and Peter have tons to share so make sure to visit their site and see what they’re all about.
