Welcome! A Little About Us
Molly
Yogi | Navigator | Sun-chaser
Hi! I'm Molly. I was raised on the East Coast and have always felt more at home when I'm on the water. I would consider myself a bit of a beach bum and always a fan of warmer climates. When I met mountain man, Josh, I knew I was in trouble.
When I'm not traveling and packing up my backpack, I'm unrolling my yoga mat to teach or practice. I would consider myself a spiritualist, an environmentalist, and a snuggler.

Hey, I'm Josh! Born and raised in Maryland, My passion for travel began in college after studying abroad in Australia which allowed me the opportunity to travel to New Zealand while in Oceania.
Molly and I share passions for travel, photography and attempting to live a sustainable lifestyle. Though travel is another one of our interests, trying to balance that and living an eco-conscious lifestyle can be difficult. We write about how we've learned to travel more sustainably both environmentally and economically.
Together, we created Worldly Wander, a way to travel and document our times abroad. Both Molly and I (Josh) met in college and both independently electing to study abroad in Australia at separate times. This was the catalyst for the travel bug in each of us. Fast forward 5 years to 2018, we were in a relationship and had spent the last few years working the 9-5. [Insert typical story about quitting your job and traveling on savings here...]
Together, we spent 18 months traveling 30+ countries over 5 continents and are back in the United States as of 2020. We are phasing back into finding a new work-life balance with a refreshed perspective. We will continue to post content from our destinations, travel advice, and guides of new places that we visit.
We are both passionate about the outdoors and practicing sustainability, so we do our best to apply an environmentally conscious mentality in our travels. You can learn more about our eco-friendly efforts in the Blog section of our website or through our social media pages (instagram, facebook, youtube)
