About Us
I'm Will
​
I grew up in a few places around the South of England, but have called Oxford home for almost 20 years now.
​
Whenever people ask me why I've stayed in one place so long - especially given my love of travel - I say this: no matter where I've been, I always get excited about coming home. That's how I know it's still home.
​
Things did change a bit when I met Lisa - but only in good ways! Home is now more about being together. That makes travel much easier.
​
Together we've travelled to places like Vietnam, Thailand, Uganda, Cambodia, Canada, Mexico and the USA - plus lots of places in Europe.
Some of those visits have been just for a week, some a month, and a few have been even longer...
We each also have a list of places we've been on our own, that we now want to show to the other - which makes planning the next adventure quite the challenge!
​
When we're not dreaming up new adventures, Lisa and I can often be found on our bicycles, usually making our way to or from a local cafe. I also like to write. I wrote a book a couple of years ago, and I'm working on a sequel. In the not-too-distant future I'll set it up on Amazon, and then you can all tell me not to quit the day job!​
And I'm Lisa.
​
Goodness, what to say.... I'm from Cambridge. Lived in York, then Washington DC, then York again, then Oxford, a brief stint doing my PhD in London and back to Oxford. ​
​
I'm an immunologist and work in malaria vaccine development with an awesome team. So awesome in fact, that my boss said yes to my request to take 4 months off to do this slightly bonkers trip.
​
I'm also training for an ironman triathlon in Wales in September 2022. I entered a competition and won a place to join the 5 other HokaXWiggle Flyers. It's already been a pretty overwhelming experience and I'll be chatting about my training while Will and I are travelling. Wish me luck!!
