Welcome to my travel blog, focusing on Asian adventures with a sprinkle of European exploration!

My name is James Fahey.
I am an Irish travel blogger, vlogger, and photographer who loves creating helpful content about the most beautiful and interesting places I’ve been fortunate enough to visit.
My passion for travel began with a trip to Boston at age eight. The new culture, different accents, and first-time flying experience captivated meāthough I didn’t grasp its full impact then.
After occasional trips throughout Europe over the years, my travel journey truly took off when I returned to the US to live in Washington D.C. For over a year, I worked as an Accounting Associate at a large construction company, gaining valuable insights into people, politics, and the world.

A couple of years later, I found myself volunteering with an NGO in Nairobi dedicated to ending human traffickingāan eye-opening experience, to say the least. This engaging opportunity truly showed me the value of immersing oneself in a different culture.
After some years of typical poor Irish weather both myself and Guada got tired. Throw in a pandemic, lockdown after lockdown and more angry Irish weather, something had to give.
Finally, we acted.

In 2023, my girlfriend Guadalupe and I embarked on an extended journey through Southeast Asia, Central Asia, India, and Turkey. It turned out to be one of the best decisions we’ve ever made.
We created countless lifelong memories, encountered wonderful people, and experienced profound changes in our hearts and minds.
We continued our travel adventures into 2024, spending another five months exploring Thailand and Indonesia. During this time, we delved deep into many of the region’s pristine islands and cities and historical sites. I am now convinced Southeast Asia is the most AMAZING part of the world!
After blogging on various other topics, I decided in 2021 to dedicate faheyjamestravel specifically to travel blogging.
When we were planning our 2023 trip we found some amazing blogs along the way which helped us so much with planning our trip. So I thought ā I could do that. And here we are!
