Sloths with Latitude

Welcome to the Sloths With Latitude Travel Blog

Hello 🙂 We are Max & Mia – an adventure-loving couple from England with a love for exploring the world together. Welcome to our travel blog! 🌍✈️


Before we met at university, we had each already caught the travel bug. However, it wasn’t until our first big trip together through the Middle East that we truly discovered how much we shared a love for immersive, off-the-beaten-path travel.


We created Sloths With Latitude to not only document some of our most unforgettable experiences – from navigating Oman’s rugged mountains and sun-scorched deserts (complete with a few unexpected hornet encounters!), to diving with sharks off the coast of Mauritius, and soaking up the culture in the heart of Japan — but also to share honest, practical tips for fellow adventurous travelers on a budget.


Whether you’re planning your first backpacking trip or searching for your next wild escape, we hope our guides, itineraries, and personal stories spark inspiration for your own epic journey.

Sloths of Love <3

Quick Update – I’m incredibly proud to share that I (Max) recently joined Chris Christensen on his multi-award-winning podcast, The Amateur Traveller, for Episode #947: Travel to Brunei and Sabah on Borneo.

 

With around 2 million annual listeners and features in the New York Times and National Geographic, The Amateur Traveller is one of Spotify’s most popular travel podcasts – so it was a real honour to be a guest on the show.
 
Quick Update 2!!! – I once again joined Chris on the Amateur Traveller, this time for Episode #959: Road Trip in Oman. 
 
Go check them out!!
