After an incredible 12 days touring Bali and the neighbouring islands, we will embark across Lombok to catch an island hopping cruise. This ship filled with incredible young people like ourselves will take us through some of the most untouched paradises of eastern Indonesia. You will get to swim on pristine coral reefs filled with turtles, baby sharks, octopus and so much more whilst dancing to music at sunset on top deck. The highlight of this cruise for most travelers is of course the sunrise swim with whale sharks. This experience is truly a once in a lifetime opportunity that will stay live with you forever.

Other highlights on the cruise include:

  • Kanawa Island (a beautiful little remote island that is perfect for watching sunset.

About Us

Hi, I’m Brooke, a 20-year-old guy from Brisbane, Australia. I grew up traveling and exploring both my home country and the world. After working hard at school and doing exactly as I was told, I got into my dream degree. But as I sat through those 3-hour lectures, I’d find myself daydreaming—imagining where I could be, the places where I felt free, happy, and truly alive.

Although I loved what I was studying, I didn’t feel alive. I felt like I was wasting precious time—time that wasn’t promised. After losing some close friends, I realised how much of a gift time truly is—a gift that can be taken at any moment. So, I asked myself: should I risk spending my final days in a classroom, or should I explore the world with no regrets?

Here I am now, almost two years later, still living with that mindset. I live every moment as if it’s my last, making myself rich with experiences, memories, and stories. And that’s why Grace, my partner in crime, and I started these tours: to find people like us, people like you—those who feel trapped in the box that society has built around them. We’re here to show you a way out.
