ABOUT US:
Hey! We are Kyle and Madie, two 20-something year old kids who live to travel. We have been together since 2016 and graduated college in December of 2021. We left August 27, 2022 to travel the world and travel on a budget of $60 a day as a couple. Follow along with us to see some epic places and see if we are able to stay on budget. Cheers! :)
