OFF THE BEATEN PATH DESTINATIONS FOR INDEPENDENT TRAVELLERS
A JOURNEY WHICH BEGAN IN NEPAL AND NOW SPANS THE GLOBE
Welcome to Kathmandu & Beyond. We are full-time travellers, Mark and Kirsty Bennetts. We’re from the UK, but, for the past 10 years, home is wherever we lay our backpacks! We’ve each travelled to over 100 countries and our travel blog documents our travels in words and photographs. These days, we enjoy following the road less travelled and exploring lesser-visited places with an emphasis on quirky sights, architecture and monuments, abandoned places, and street art.
Through our travel blog, we aim to share our experiences and inspire you to travel to off the beaten path destinations, and seek out unconventional things to see and do in better-known places.
Join us on the road less travelled as we discover quirky and unusual things to do and see, and explore off-beat destinations.
Travelling has always been our passion – for work and for fun – and now it is our lifestyle. We’ve been travelling together for more than 20 years, but this particular journey (one that has taken us to Kathmandu and many, many places beyond) began in 2008. You can read more about us here, sign up for our newsletter, and follow us in real time via social media.
