About us
Welcome to our life
Welcome to our little home on the internet and to our life. We are two girls, Elin from Sweden and Paula from Finland who fell in love during our travels in Australia. During that time, we didn’t only fall in love with each other. We also fell in love with writing, photographing and exploring new places. We figured, the world is our playground so why not go out and explore while we can?
On this blog, we want to share our adventures around this playground with you, and hopefully inspire you to go out there too and to do all those things that you didn’t think were possible.
We also want to share about how you can travel more sustainable, eat healthier and travel on a budget. Because let’s face it, we don’t have a lot of money to spend on five-star hotels or expensive meals. We’re living on a backpacker budget. You will most likely find us in a small bungalow somewhere or by the food stand in the corner of the street buying fried vegetables. So if you’re looking for travel tips about five-star hotels and luxurious dinners, then you’re at the wrong place. If you’re on the other hand looking for a place where you can find budget travel tips, how to live more sustainable and how to eat vegan while traveling, then you can just keep on looking around. ”Mi casa es tu casa” so to speak.
Oh, we almost forgot, we are also a part of the LGBTQ+ community. We will throughout the blog highlight what it’s like to travel around as a lesbian couple. And this is also why our blog is called ”Travel the Rainbow”.
But who are we then, you might ask or you might not but the description of us is going to come here whether you want it or not.
Keep scrolling if you’re interested in getting to know us more personally, if not, why don’t you take moment and check out our travel guides, weekly updates or maybe just a bit of information about how to travel more sustainable?
Hi, I’m Elin! I’m the swedish half of this couple.
Growing up I constantly wanted to do and experience things and some people might even have called me a bit intense. Competing was my motto in life and I was playing soccer throughout my whole childhood and teenage years. My family have always traveled quite some during my childhood and I was early on dreaming about going to Australia.
And here we are now, a few years and one Australian adventure later, the travel bug is born and we’re setting off for new adventures.
Hi there, I’m Paula and I’m from Finland.
I’ve always been a bit of a dreamer and ever since I was a kid my dreams have mostly circulated around traveling and making a world a better place (yes, I’m a bit of a cliche).
I headed to my first backpacking trip to Asia when I was 19 and became obsessed about traveling. I was constantly spending my salaries on booking new flight tickets and trips until I decided to quit my job a couple of years ago and head to Australia. There I met a cute Swedish blonde who stole my heart and we began our journey together.
