If you have been reading up, hopping around, and/or linking up with us these past few months than you may know these ladies quite well as they have been keeping Travel Tuesday running. Before they go I wanted to highlight them here on the blog so you can get to know them better and make sure to know where to find them on their blogs and across the social media scene. Plus each wonderful girl has chosen one of you to take their place for Travel Tuesday over the next three months! So have a fun read as I let these amazing cohosts take the lead today.
Hi! I blog over at Amy and the Great World (http://www.amyandthegreatworld.com). I started my blog a year ago as a way to chronicle my travels so I wouldn’t forget them, and to consolidate past blogs into one. It has evolved as a way to keep my family and friends updated on my new life abroad in Prague, and includes plenty of advice on how (not) to travel, a few travel-themed games, other life thoughts and random travel tips. Now that I’ve discovered the blogging community and the plethora of travel stories out there, I’m hooked! Come follow along as I try to make a life in Prague, explore as much of Europe as I can, and reminisce about my experiences in Asia, South America, and beyond!
FIVE FUN TRAVEL FACTS
1. I am a travel fiend–to date, I’ve been to 23 countries.
2. I am currently fulfilling a lifelong dream of living abroad by teaching English as a Second Language in the lovely Prague.
3. I had never flown until I was 15. My first flight was overseas to Switzerland!
4. I accidentally ate congealed pig’s blood in Thailand thinking it was tofu. It was actually not as gross as it sounds but certainly was not tofu.
5. On my travels, I have been given nicknames in different languages, such as “MacGaw” in a northern Thai dialect which (supposedly) means “sweet pomegranate” and “XiaoMi” which in Mandarin means “small piece of rice.” My new names usually involve food…

Two Feet, One World is the travel blog of the adventures of Jessi, a Kiwi now living in London. She loves exploring, good coffee, and beaches in any form. Her favourite adventures to date have been Oktoberfest in Munich (two years in a row!), an incredible trip through Turkey, cramming as much as possible into weekends in Copenhagen, Paris and Barcelona, and of course the crazy madness that is life in London.
Fun facts:
1. I love trying new food wherever I go, and have only had memorable backfires a couple of times, like when I ended up with a whole octopus on my plate!
2. I have now visited 28 countries and so am well on track to see 30 before I’m 30.
3. I’ve run nine half-marathons and I’d love my tenth to be somewhere exciting overseas.
4. I’m a beach bunny and will always opt for sun over snow.
5. I hate being forced to choose, but my favourite country that I have visited so far is Vietnam.
