About

Hey there - thanks for visiting my blog!

I’m Jess, and i’m the founder of Backpack With Me - AKA the Girl Behind the ‘Gram!

I’ve been living on the road since 2016, hopping from country to country with my partner Dom (@domexplores on insta). We’ve had countless temporary homes including a bungalow in Thailand, our parents houses in London & New York (freeloaders LOL), an amazing converted van named Marshmallow in Australia, and wherever the wind (or planes) take us!

There’s much more to me than what I choose to show on Instagram, so send me a message and get to know me! I LOVE to meet likeminded travel-lovers and swap adventure stories.

Happy Travels and please don’t be a stranger! x
