The Adventures of Jellie Travel Blog

We are John and Ellie and together we make up the Adventures of Jellie, a travel blog that hopes to inspire you to get out of your comfort zone and travel the world.

Welcome to our adventures!

We share our stories, mishaps and everything we’ve learnt on our backpacking journeys as well as all the essential travel information to help you get the most out of your own travel adventures.

Our travel guides cover everything from bucket list ‘must see’ destinations through to undiscovered gems. We tell you where to eat the best street food, where to have a sunset beer as well as all the best places to stay, what to do and how to get around - our travel blog covers everything!

We are John and Ellie, a South London couple with a passion for travel, food and photography. After meeting at university and spending a decade in the offices of London we gave into our wanderlust and set off on our adventures.

We left for our big adventure in July 2022 and headed to Asia. Since departing, we have been documenting our travels here as well as Instagram and the occasional YouTube video.

We love the unexpected and always try to get off the beaten path. Whether it’s eating at tiny hole in the wall curry joints, mad tuk tuk rides or simply going places that people said we shouldn’t, we’re always looking for adventure beyond the walled gardens of Trip Advisor and Google Reviews!

Join us on our adventures for the best guides, long term travel advice and tips and tricks you won’t find in the Lonely Planet!
