About Us

We are 2 sisters and a brother who live half a world apart – Sydney and London – and we travel to meet up. When we were children, our mother used to call us “cows” when she referred to us in the third person.  “That cow bought cabbage instead of spinach” or “that cow hasn’t done her piano practice” or “the cow got a bad geography grade”.  We still call each other “cow” in jest and it seemed appropriate to name our travelling blog just that.

These days we are accompanied by two fast-growing youngsters who’ve had growth spurts over the last year.  Together and separately, we’d like you to join us on our mini-adventures at home and abroad.  Enjoy the “post”-cards. We’ll sign them as per below. In order of age –

Spotted Cow is an urban Londoner. She’s responsible for most of the photography on the site.

Purple Cow is the Sydney-based architect of this blog. She organized us and designed it all. The youngsters belong to her.

Cowlick has Superman hair. He’s Sydney-based as well and hoping that one day he can rip off the Clark Kent suit.

Chocolate Milk Cow has a voracious appetite, especially after sport.  He’s been known to be handy in the kitchen.

Moo Cow is the cutest of the lot, and the most fashion savvy.  She could charm the fur off an Eskimo.

This might seem like an elaborate plot at anonymity, but in fact it is to protect the youngsters from the dazzling limelight when fame hits.
