TravelnWrite ~ the Blog!
Now approaching a million and a half page views, our blog TravelnWrite is an on-line resource for expat lifestyle and travel information and entertainment. First written to keep family and friends informed of our whereabouts, our readership now spans the globe. We've had readers come from more than 120 countries.
Using a play on words – ‘travel and write’ (what we do) and ‘travelin’ right’ (how we do it) – we hope to inspire you to set forth on your own adventures or entertain you as you explore the world with us from your armchair.
If you are passionate about travel - the sensory overload it causes, the emotions it stirs, the fortitude it sometimes builds and the doors it opens - our blog is for you.
Joel (The Scout, for searching out deals and itineraries) was an attorney.

The Scout and The Scribe |
Long before we reached U.S. retirement age we said goodbye to our '8 to 5' desk jobs.
Jackie (The Scribe, for writing the blog and freelance travel and life style articles) was a former newspaper reporter-turned-public relations director.
Admittedly we worked and saved for several decades with an eye to the future: packing our bags and setting off!

The Scout in Greece |
We decided we'd rather grow olives in Greece than grow old in the United States.
