The Lavender Travelers
Lives in Melbourne VIC, Australia
Welcome to the world of The Lavender Travelers! We're Jess & Julia - a Brit and an American living in 🇦🇺 Australia. Armed with a wealth of experience in both personal travel and trip curation, we pride ourselves on crafting guides and experiences that are as unique as they are unforgettable. As queer, 30-year-old budget travelers, we understand the importance of making every penny count while still enjoying the finer things in life. Our passion for sharing amazing local food, finding top wallet-friendly accommodation, and curating authentic experiences drives every aspect of our travel planning. Our guides reflect our current stage of life. Gone are the days of wild parties for us; instead, we embrace the motto of early to bed, early to rise (with the occasional late night thrown in still 😉). We love nothing more than people watching in a café with a morning coffee, exploring in the afternoon, then hitting the night market in the evening. We plan trips for all sorts of people, but we’re particularly passionate about connecting with those who love good food, are culturally curious, and are seeking immersive experiences that transcend the typical backpacker party scene. So whether you're yearning to wander through historic cobblestone streets or lose yourself in the vibrant colors of a bustling market, let The Lavender Travelers be your compass. With us, the world is yours to explore – authentically, passionately, and unapologetically 🏳️‍🌈.

ecoconscious travel
Lives in Melbourne VIC, Australia
Shiela and Simon are avid travellers who have seen first-hand the impact that tourism can have on the environment and local communities. They realised that there was a need for travel information and resources that focused on sustainable, responsible travel, and so ecoconscious travel was born. The aim of our ecoconscious travel is to provide an information resource and online booking platform where eco-conscious travellers can easily find and book high quality tourism experiences that align with their values – presented from a trusted source who knows and can recommend those experiences. Our Mission We are a team of passionate travellers and environmental advocates who believe that travel can be a force for good in the world. Our mission is to inspire and empower travellers to make sustainable choices that benefit both the planet and the communities they visit. We understand that tourism can have a significant impact on the environment and local cultures, and we are committed to minimising our footprint through responsible travel practices. We work with local partners to create itineraries that are designed to minimise waste, reduce carbon emissions, and support sustainable tourism initiatives.
