Meet Raptive creators Anna and Tom Rogers, co-founders of Adventure In You! This international pair (she’s from the Philippines and he’s from the UK) met while backpacking, decided to start a travel blog, and the rest is history. They now run multiple businesses from the road, inspiring millions of readers to seek their own adventures—in travel, business, and life.
1. What would your audience be surprised to know about you?
We’ve been traveling the world for the last ten years while running our website, plus other businesses. We bounce around from country to country and move every 3-6 months. Up to this day, everything that we own still fits inside one suitcase and backpack each.
2. Was there a specific moment when you realized travel would change your life?
The freedom that we found from travel was one of the most exhilarating experiences ever and from that point, we knew we had to figure out a way to “make it work,” which was when we decided to start our blog. We stumbled upon a blogger making $5K a month which at the time seemed like a ton of money so we dove straight in. Blogging is what actually got us started in our journey to entrepreneurship.
3. What does work/life balance look like for you?
Since we travel full time, if we’re in a new place we’ll usually work for 4-5 hours in the morning then spend the rest of the day exploring, going to the gym, etc.
4. How has your business evolved since you first launched Adventure In You?
Wow! It’s been a wild ride for sure as we now run three businesses together. Since Adventure in You, we launched a blogging course, which we scaled to seven figures, and now run Lifestyle Rich, where we help coaches & consultants sell their expertise online. We always joke that Adventure in You and blogging have been our gateway to running online businesses.
5. How have you seen AI impact the travel industry?
The entire blogging industry will be changing due to AI, as people are changing the way they search and consume content. However, having said this, those who have built personal brands or those who are able to pivot and diversify their income streams are in a much better position.
