The guy behind the globe-trotting.
Hey, I’m Solly — and I’ve made it my mission to see as much of the world as possible whilst working around my day-job.
Fair warning: if you ever ask me where I want to travel next, clear your schedule. Because that question opens a very long conversation… and probably a spreadsheet.
I’ve always had the travel bug, but somewhere along the way I realised I didn’t need to wait for the “right time” to go. No perfect window, no magical amount of savings, no ticking of every box before I could book the flight. I just needed to start.
So I did.
These days, I travel as much as I can. Working remotely from cities I’m still learning to pronounce, eating my way through local markets, and discovering that the world’s best meals are rarely the ones on the tourist map. Give me a hole-in-the-wall spot recommended by a taxi driver over a Michelin star any day.
When I’m not on the road, you’ll find me with approximately a million browser tabs open, hunting for a flight deal that makes the whole thing feel almost too easy. (Almost. There’s always a layover that gives you pause.)


Guy Around The Globe started as a way to share what I was learning – the places that surprised me, the food that changed me, and the travel myths I was busy busting one trip at a time. Whether you’re a seasoned traveler or you’re just starting to think maybe I should actually go somewhere, I hope something here makes you feel a little more ready to pack your bag.
The World’s too big to stay in one place.
– Solly
