We’re Livia and Sam, the couple behind this travel blog.

We started LBSB World in 2019 to document our journeys, share our photography, and help others discover how to travel smarter and find places beyond the typical tourist trail.

For the past 8 years, we’ve been travelling full-time. We don’t have a permanent home, just a constantly changing one, and a well-travelled Paddington Bear plush who comes with us everywhere.

Everything you read here is based on our own experiences. Every guide, itinerary, and photo comes from places we’ve actually been.

Along the way, we’ve explored bucket-list destinations, hiked active volcanoes, encountered incredible wildlife, and visited castles, temples, and historic sites across the world.

We haven’t been everywhere yet, but it’s firmly on the list.

If this travel blog helps you plan a trip, discover somewhere new, or travel a little differently, then it’s doing exactly what we hoped it would.
