Hi I’m Mark a 62 year old Male who loves the thought of travel and does it occasionally when I can. As we go on I’ll share a story about what travel has done for me, especially in the early 90’s whenI took a 4 month sabbatical around North America & Canada. A variety of accomodation but the meeting of others gave it a whole new perspective. Stay tuned for more. 👌👍

Hi everyone, I’m Andrew — founder of The Passport Connection and a lifelong traveller with over 40 years of adventures around the world. I live on the beautiful Bellarine Peninsula near ocean beaches, wineries, and just an hour from Melbourne. When I’m not travelling, I’m busy with my business, keeping active, and enjoying life with my great mate Mark and our dog Maxi. What keeps me travelling is simple: people. From Argentina to Finland, Israel to India, Greece to New Zealand, and through the markets, mountains, festivals, and rainforests of the world, it’s always the people and their stories that have stayed with me. That human connection is exactly why The Passport Connection exists. Here, I’ll introduce you to wonderful people I’ve met throughout my journeys. Join our weekly online coffee catch-ups, chat with members, hear their incredible travel stories, and build new friendships. Everyone in this community is connected through shared experiences, memories, stories and many many smiles. And if you ever find yourself in Australia — there’s always a bed waiting for you at our house.
