A few days ago we were enjoying dinner out. Talking with a family friend, we were asked what we do for a living. It’s never pleasant to answer this question. Not because of the reply per se but, because more often than not, this moment is followed by comments such ... more »]]> https://bkpk.me/a-life-of-travel-an-end-of-the-year-reflection/feed/ 17 https://bkpk.me/most-read-travel-articles-of-2014/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=most-read-travel-articles-of-2014 https://bkpk.me/most-read-travel-articles-of-2014/#comments Mon, 29 Dec 2014 12:41:36 +0000 Zara http://bkpk.me/?p=14487
When a year comes to an end, it’s rather common for people to do a balance of whatever happened during the previous 12 months. For us, as a blog, that retrospective comes in the shape of looking at what travel articles which we wrote resonated the most with you guys ... more »]]> https://bkpk.me/most-read-travel-articles-of-2014/feed/ 9 https://bkpk.me/the-best-digital-nomad-spaces-in-vietnam/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=the-best-digital-nomad-spaces-in-vietnam https://bkpk.me/the-best-digital-nomad-spaces-in-vietnam/#comments Mon, 27 Oct 2014 18:07:39 +0000 Andrea Anastasiou http://bkpk.me/?p=14025
Any digital nomad will know the importance of three things: a good cup of coffee, a fast WiFi connection, and comfortable sofas (bums get sore after a few hours!). Earlier this year, we spent two months in Vietnam, eating, slurping and working our way around the country. Whenever we based ... more »]]> https://bkpk.me/the-best-digital-nomad-spaces-in-vietnam/feed/ 24 https://bkpk.me/the-most-memorable-moments-from-my-time-in-north-korea/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=the-most-memorable-moments-from-my-time-in-north-korea https://bkpk.me/the-most-memorable-moments-from-my-time-in-north-korea/#comments Sun, 20 Oct 2013 05:15:55 +0000 Irina Callegher http://bkpk.me/?p=9739

We started this collaborative series taking a voyage around Asia, exploring popular destinations such as Thailand and the Philippines, and going to others less known yet very interesting, such as Kyrgyszstan. After Asia, we moved onto Africa & The Middle East to mingle with the locals, experience raw landscapes and wildlife, ... more »]]> https://bkpk.me/travel-to-my-country-34-the-americas-caribbean/feed/ 9
