The People of Myanmar in Pictures…

Myanmar

Myanmar is a beautiful country in south-east Asia, little visited by tourists. The people are friendly and engaging. Here is a selection of photographs we took of the local people during our two weeks in Myanmar.

About Us

We are a family of five who love to travel and experience the world together. In 2016/17 we travelled around the world for nine months: 28,000 miles, 15 countries and countless memories made. Our journey took us through Asia, SE Asia, Australia and New Zealand, USA and southern Africa.
Although our “big trip” is now over and we are settled back in the UK, we are still travelling as much as the school holidays will allow. We want to inspire others to have adventures and explore the world.

Live life as if it is more than just another day.
