About Us
Who are 40sWanderlust?
Welcome to our travel blog, it’s lovely for you to join us! We are Sam and Daryoush, a bi-racial couple living in the UK, in our 40s, and we love traveling the world together. We share with you our top tips, foodie finds, and lessons learned so that you can have a stress-free holiday.
As individuals, we have a long history of traveling the world for work and fun. Together we embrace slow travel, enjoy good food, and watch the world go by.
We hope to inspire you to also have the confidence to plan that trip of a lifetime.
- We have a mid-range budget so our travel style is flying economy and using public transport, but you’ll often find us renting a scooter or a car.
- We mostly stay in basic 3* accommodation but will splash out on a fancy hotel when tired and need some home comforts.
- We enjoy good food and prefer street food over fine-dining restaurants. Check our Reviews page for foodie content!
As a bi-racial couple from different very backgrounds, we have our unique way of connecting with other cultures and are fascinated by people’s everyday lives. (Sam is British-Chinese and Daryoush is British-Iranian) We speak several languages between us which helps us to communicate widely with people we come across on our adventures.
