Get to Know Kitti and Jon!
We are Kitti and Jon, a multinational (Hungarian and British) couple who love the outdoors and live in the North of England, UK. In 2020, Kitti decided to start a travel blog which was soon followed by creating a joint YouTube channel with Jon. Below you can get to know us a bit more individually and our responsibilities in operating this travel blog and our YouTube channel.
Get to Know Kitti
Hi I’m Kitti! I’m a Hungarian girl who took her first flight when she was 21. Yes, you read that correctly! I was 21 years old when I boarded my first ever flight to London heading to Cardiff in Wales to become an au pair.
I lived and worked in Cardiff for 6 months and it was during this time that my love and passion for travel, culture and nature really bloomed. I met some amazing friends, explored some beautiful places – and my English improved immensely!
I had caught the travel bug and was soon on another flight – this time to the US – where I met Jon working at the same summer camp. I am now 30 and have since explored many more countries (living in 3 different ones), experienced different cultures and customs, tried many new cuisines and met with so many amazing people from all over the world along the way.
My responsibilities are in writing and managing this blog, editing all our photos (and taking quite a few myself!), and looking after our social media accounts.
Get to Know Jon
Hi I’m Jon! I was born and raised in the UK but from an early age I was spending a lot of time abroad. I boarded my first flight when I was 1 year old and have been travelling and exploring the world ever since.
I love discovering and capturing new places and always try to make sure I do and see as much as possible in the time that I have in each new place. As well as travelling, I have a passion for adventure and sports and I have combined all in the past when working abroad at summer camps in the US and at ski resorts in the French Alps.
Like everyone in 2020, I found myself with quite a lot of free time on my hands, and so a GoPro was bought, filming began, and I started teaching myself the art of videography. I definitely still have a long way to go but I am loving the process!
I am the person behind the camera on all of Kitti’s photos, although she generally tells me where to point and shoot! In addition, I am responsible for filming and editing all of our YouTube videos which I now know can be a very long process – so I have a newfound respect for all vloggers and content creators out there!
