Who We Are

Hi, we’re Laurens and Laura just two people who fell in love with traveling the world… and each other (aww!)

We’re two travel addicts who want to take you with us on our travel adventures full of epic sights, honest reviews, and a healthy dose of awkward-but-relatable moments.

We’re not here to just show you pretty sunsets (although we have plenty of those). We’re here to share with you our secrets to traveling smarter, not harder. Also maybe avoiding that hotel that claims to have “luxury” when it’s actually old and way past its prime.

About Yes and Explore

Our YouTube channel @yesandexplore and our blog started as a fun way to document our trips and now it’s grown into a place where we help fellow travelers inform and plan adventures that are unforgettable for all the right reasons (and none of the bad ones).

Between us, Laurens is the one who keeps things chill and knows how to score deals, while Laura is the queen of details and the planner extraordinaire. Together, we’re proof that opposites attract and yes we do occasionally bicker over who is right and wrong!

What We Do

At Yes and Explore, we don’t just explore the world, we dig deep to bring you:

  • Comprehensive Travel Guides: Get insider tips and destination advice for places like Bangkok, Okinawa, Kuala Lumpur, Boracay, Chiang Mai, and many more. Our guides go beyond the basics to help you travel smarter!
  • Honest Hotel & Accommodation Reviews: Wondering if that “luxury” is really worth it? We’ll tell you with brutal honesty and maybe a laugh or two or three or four or….none…
  • Practical Travel Tips: Let us help you navigate airports, transportation, find the best local cuisine and use our tips to travel smarter.
