I have some news I’ve been holding on to for quite some time now. The past few months have put many things on hold, including this long overdue update. Some of you may remember that in the beginning of March, Jacob and I spent a very short couple of days in Amsterdam. That trip was intended to be much longer….
Read the PostOne of the best parts about getting to travel together is learning from each other’s strong suits. I’m the planner when we travel, as Jacob can attest. I have a mental checklist of all the spots I want to check off on our trips. On the other hand, I’m terrible when it comes to organizing our photography gear and anything…
Read the PostIt’s been over 6 months since my last update, and over 3 years now since we moved abroad. I really enjoy sharing what we’ve been up to so that if you’re thinking of uprooting your life, you can at least get a glimpse of what it’s been like for us! What’s crazy is that this all began from the moment…
Read the PostI frequently get asked what my most-used travel item is. Though my mind immediately goes to our travel photography gear (of course, we couldn’t do our jobs without it), my must-have for any trip is my Amazon Kindle. I use it every single day when I’m traveling. It took me a long time to get on board with using a Kindle, but it’s…
Read the PostA couple weeks ago, Jacob and I made the decision to change our Instagram account. Specifically, we decided to update our account from having both our names, to just listing mine — Selena Taylor. Since starting @finduslost, a lot has changed — both with us, and with Instagram as a platform. Before I dive into the reasons we made this…
Read the PostAs some of you know, Jacob and I announced in July that we were leaving Amsterdam to travel full-time. For the past few months we’ve been traveling more often than we were home. Being present when we returned to our home base in Amsterdam was hard. It was a logical move to give the full-time travel lifestyle a shot. After…
Read the PostBack in January I wrote about how our lives had changed in a year and a half since moving from Los Angeles to Amsterdam. The post covered how we got to where we are now, with a month-by-month progression of how we turned travel into our full-time job. Since you all loved the timeline (it turned out to be one…
Read the PostThough we’re rarely home in Amsterdam for months at a time, I still feel a sense of relief every time we return. The first thing we always do is open our windows to our front balcony (as long as it’s not raining!), sit outside and watch the canals. I’ve fallen more in love with living in this city than I…
Read the PostIt’s Monday morning, and I’m currently writing from my favorite coffee house in Amsterdam, Sweet Cup. I can’t believe it’s been a year and a half since we moved to Europe and found an apartment in Amsterdam to call home. It’s hard for me to transport my life back to what it was in 2016 before we left to travel. If…
