Travel Live Learn was founded in 2010 as a blog about our experiences moving to London from Australia. It has evolved a lot over the past decade – through two more subsequent moves from Australia to live in the UK. We’ve grown into a multichannel brand about travel (including destination profiles, pet-friendly and house sitting), remote work, and expat living in the UK.
Over the past ten years we’ve come to really value the freedom and inspiration that travel offers. COVID put into harsh perspective the fact that we should never take our time or opportunities for granted. So, in 2023, we’ve moved back to the UK from Australia. It’s our third time living and working here, and this time we’ve brought our “COVID puppy”, London, along for the adventure.
Travel Live Learn is produced by us – Sarah Blinco & Cooper Dawson – and it’s where we channel over 15 years specialist media and communications experience alongside a passion for seeing the world. Our core values – freedom, creativity and care for animals – are reflected across our content. We love what we do here, and want to inspire you to do the same.
