Hi there! We’re Tam and Mat, but you might know us best as @global.and.beyond.travel on Instagram!

We’re so excited you’re here! This is where we show you all the fun stuff we get up to and hopefully inspire you to travel to new and exciting destinations around the world!
My name’s Tamra, you’re resident blogger. An accomplished television journalist of more than 13 years, most mornings I drag myself out of bed at 2am, throw on a face full of make up and run out the door to report on world events on Australia’s number one breakfast show, Channel 7 Sunrise. In the past, I’ve also featured as a reporter on ITN News in the UK.
With an exceptionally strong background in research and reporting, and an extensive travel background, I’m able to deep dive into locations and experiences, offering you, our readers, the absolute best information about places we’ve been around the world.
As a national journalist, my number one focus has always been to put facts first.
Lucky enough to live on the beautiful Gold Coast in Australia with hubby Mat, we’ve travelled Asia extensively and also been through much of Europe and plenty of our home country, Australia.
Some of the places we’ve loved best and we’re itching to show you around include:
South Korea – Seoul, Nami Island, Hwadam Forest, Gyeongju, Busan
Japan – Tokyo, Kyoto, Nagano, Mt Fuji, Nara, Kanazawa, Shirakawa-go
Thailand – Bangkok, Koh Phi Phi, Koh Samui, Phuket
Indonesia – Bali, Lombok, Gili Trawangan
China – Changsha, Zhangjiajie
Europe – United Kingdom, Scotland, Spain, France, Portugal, Greece, France
Australia – Gold Coast, Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne, Perth, Rottnest Island, Hamilton Island, Daydream Island, Adelaide, McLaren Vale Wine Region, Tasmania, Bruny Island, Hobart
