About

Hi, we're Josh and Stacy Leigh!

We are both proudly born and raised west Kentuckians. We lived in Moldova for a few years, and now we live in Malawi with our tribe of five kids and a standard poodle.

Growing up, we hardly traveled farther than Florida or the Smoky Mountains, but ever since our first trips overseas as teens, we have been bitten hard by the travel bug. We love to make and find adventures wherever we go, whether that’s near our home, around Malawi, or around the world.

Most people can’t put their lives on hold to travel full-time, but we can all make adventure happen in the midst of our normal lives. This is a record of our adventures, which we hope will inspire and equip you to seek adventures in the midst of your normal life, too.

We have guests from the US here this week, so we took them on a boat safari up the Shire River at @liwonde_national_park! We didn’t see much more than hippos, but it was a very peaceful ride through the park, and the weather is perfect this time of year. After the boat ride, we had…
One of my random strong traveler opinions is that when you’re counting the number of countries you’ve been to, airports don’t count. We’ve been to the Addis Ababa, Ethiopia airport several times on our way to and from Malawi, but we’ve never left the airport so I don’t consider myself to have been to Ethiopia.…
I honestly have this thought in literally every city I visit. But especially Rome. Don’t mind me, just trying to figure out how we can live here. 😄 . . . #expat #expatlife #expatfamily #expatblogger #travel #travelingram #travelingfamily #adventurefamily #adventuretravel
We leave what has been our temporary home in the US the last 7 months in 2 days, and we leave the US the next day. I wish we could skip to the good part of spending a few days in Rome and then being back home in Malawi, but no. We have an overwhelming…
It’s honestly REALLY hard to choose the best view we saw in 2022, because we’ve been to so many amazing places, but I think Rome from the top of the St. Peter’s Basillica dome takes the cake for me! It was so gorgeous, and totally worth all those stairs! Hanging out on the roof a…
It’s been an unbelievable year of adventuring and first year of adventurologists! We had the unique opportunity this year to spend the first 6 months in Malawi, the last 6 months in the US, and a few days in Italy in between. It was VERY hard to narrow each month down to just one clip,…
Possibly our most unpopular opinion as travelers is that we didn’t like Zion National Park. We went in the middle of the week in the off season, and it was still insanely crowded. This video is from the start of the Narrows, ZNP’s most popular hike, but we also did two other less popular hikes…
While on our road trip, I filmed this quick video explaining how I packed my @cotopaxi Allpa35 to live out of it for a month. It worked so well, I wouldn’t change a thing about it! It also has a laptop sleeve in the back, but we had so many electronics and cords that we…
