Derek and Carine are the duo behind We Did It Our Way, a blog about experiencing the best abroad with sustainable travel practices. Derek and Carine took a leap of faith and quit their jobs to become full time travelers. 

Since their first 15 month trip throughout Europe, Africa, Asia, and Oceania in 2017, their love for travel grew into a passion and a new way of life. They transitioned their blog from a website to update family members to a full public resource to share their knowledge and experience with other ambitious travelers.
