Welcome to Our World đŸŒ´đŸž

We’re so glad you’re here! Living in Winter Garden, Florida, we’ve built a life around the things that bring us joy: delicious food, exciting travel, warm sunshine, and the company of friends, family, and our beloved cats.

Health and fitness are at the heart of our lifestyle. Whether it’s staying active together or enjoying the outdoors, we believe in keeping both body and mind strong. For Melisa, that passion shines brightest in her love for running—whether it’s a sunrise jog through town or training for the next big race, running is her way of connecting with the world and pushing boundaries.

🌍 Our Story

  • Richard was born in Edinburgh and grew up with a deep love of rugby union. His journey took him from a childhood in the wilds of the Orkney Islands, to university in Stirling, and an accountancy apprenticeship in Inverness. Eventually, life carried him to the Cayman Islands, where adventure and opportunity awaited.
  • Melisa hails from Western Kansas and studied at Kansas State University in Manhattan. Her love of food—especially baking—has always been part of her identity. She’s lived in the British Virgin Islands, St. Thomas, and the Cayman Islands, each place adding to her love of travel and culture.

Together, we’ve blended our backgrounds into a shared life full of laughter, adventure, and the simple pleasures of good company. This space is where we share those experiences—celebrating the beauty of everyday life, the thrill of new journeys, and the warmth of community.
