Over the last three years, Ordinary Traveler has become one of the leading adventure travel and photography blogs. Christy & Scott have been traveling the world together since 2006, surfing and taking photos along the way.
This duo met in 2006 and decided life is too short to do something you don't love. They started Ordinary Traveler in 2010 to chronicle their travels and share their love of photography.
During an extended stay in Southeast Asia, they realized they love their home base in coastal San Diego too much to be permanent nomads, so they are learning how to juggle living a "normal" life at home, traveling the world and running several online businesses.
One of their most recent business projects, where they designed a revolutionary surf bikini, was built from a love of adventure and surfing. You can learn more about this venture by watching the video below.
