Hi, I’m Lauren pears 👋
For over a decade, I’ve been travelling the world by foot and by bike, visiting more than 40 countries across 6 continents. My love of outdoor travel started young, thanks to my dad, whose stories of cycling around India and climbing in the Himalayas sparked a curiosity about the world that never really went away.
I started The Planet Edit to share honest travel guides and personal stories for people who love adventure travel and getting outdoors. I’ve now been blogging for almost ten years, and have contributed to publications like Lonely Planet, Southeast Asia Backpacker, and World Nomads.

What’s my mission?
I like to travel to destinations with a story to tell, seeking great hikes, epic bike rides, and jaw-dropping natural scenery.
My mission is to build a community of travellers who enjoy getting off the beaten path in search of the world’s most beautiful natural wonders.
So, I write in-depth guides and detailed stories on hiking, cycling, and outdoor experiences across the globe.
Who wants the worry, the hurry of city life?

Money, nothing funny, wasting the best of our life.
