S1 Ep11: An Interview with Hand Luggage Only

In episode eleven of the Twin Perspectives podcast series, we venture beyond the safety of Claire's office to London! With our trusty microphone and laptop in tow, we set off to conduct our first ever podcast interview with our favourite fellow travel bloggers - Hand Luggage Only. Run by Lloyd and Yaya, Hand Luggage Only was born just three months before TTT in April 2014. Quickly gaining traction, it wasn't long before HLO became a self-sustaining business, and Yaya and Lloyd have now been travelling and running the blog full-time for two and a half years. Having recently won Best Travel Blog 2017 at the Vuelio Blog awards, their blog continues to grow at a staggering (and slightly sickening) rate. With average page views of 1,200,000 a month, and over 700,000 followers, it's obvious they're doing something right; and Laura and I wanted in on their secret to such a successful partnership.
