We Wander — Mark & Meghan’s World Travels

Some of you may have noticed a couple of new little icons in the navigation bar at the top of our site. That’s right — we’ve added new stuff! During our delay in Medan, we made some improvements and updates to our site:

1. Check out the new and improved About Us page! That’s the new little “i” icon up there, by the way. Many of you have been asking us about budgets and costs, so we’ve added a whole bunch of information about the financial side to our travels. We’ve also started to add some links to the sidebar, pointing to sites that we’ve found useful or inspiring as we go.

2. The footprints icon will take you to our Breadcrumb, were we’ve added some cool new stats, as well as modified the map to focus more on the most recent legs of our travels. Now when I write about a nightmarish 14 hour bus ride, it’s even easier to zip over to our Breadcrumb to see where exactly it took place.

3. Our main page now has two new items in the sidebar: “Recent Comments” and “Featured Posts”, to make it easier to keep up with the latest activity on the site, and to make our most popular posts even easier to find.

4. In the update category, we’ve posted two new albums on the Photos page: Sumatra pt. 2 and our Christmas in Singapore album, which we’d somehow overlooked until now.

We’re pretty excited about the evolution of wewander.ca. There are more changes on the way soon, so be on the lookout. We’d also love to hear what you think of the new content. So leave a comment or send us an email directly using the new “Contact Us” section on our About Us page.

Three new albums are up on the photos page. Enjoy!

At last we've arrived in Asia. We're really excited to be here, and are starting to adjust to the stifling heat/humidity combination.

Check out the breadcrumb for the latest routes. Also, we’ve just posted four new albums on the photos page, from Alexandria, Dubai, Mumbai and Cochin.

We just uploaded a bunch of new albums to the photos page, from our recent destinations. Be sure to check out the photos from Meteora — that place is unbelievable.

Check out the photos page for new pictures from Rabat and Marrakesh, Morocco.

We’ve posted our photos from Chefchaouen on the photos page, and they are some of our favourites so far. Enjoy!

Two new albums are up on our photos page, from Bilbao and Granada in Spain.

We’ve posted new photos on the photos page. Look for the Biarritz and St. Jean de Luz album, as well as the Narrowboating album, which we’d overlooked somehow. Better late than never; it’s up there now.
