After a massive bus ride winding its way up and up, we had reached Manali, a popular mountain town in the Indian Himalayas, and a renowned spot for adventure tourism.
We stayed in Old Manali, a beautiful village a couple of kilometres from the main town itself, and popular with the laid back traveller scene. While we were loving the cooler temperatures, the real highlight of our first visit to Manali was the great trekking, waterfalls, and the stunning scenery. We even found ourselves lost in an apple orchard while trying to find Jogni waterfall. Manali was also a great opportunity to dive into Tibetan style Indian food and we absolutely loved it.
We loved Manali, and were pretty sure that despite leaving earlier than we wanted to, we would find our way back before we left India.

Leave to Roam
We are Kel and Al, a couple from New Zealand and Australia who have always had a passion for travel. In January 2018 we left our full time jobs and started to travel the world. We spent two years travelling on a budget through South East Asia documenting our adventures as we went before we found a new dream, to buy a boat! Fours years of hard work scrimping and saving led us to our dream. We introduce you to our home Dakini. She is a 2010 Lagoon 421 and we love her. Purchased in Greece we started our adventure cruising the greek islands. Two years later we have sailed all over Greece, Italy, Turkey and Malta with a winter in Tunisia. Our plan for 2026 is to explore Albania, Italy, Malta, France and Spain before the biggest adventure of our lives, crossing the Atlantic around New Years. Exciting times ahead.
