AFTER 10 YEARS WE LEARNT
IT'S THE PHILOSOPHY WE LIVE BY AT GANDYS.
10 years of travelling the world. 10 years of exploring. 10 years of pushing boundaries.
The past 10 years of our lives have revolved around building Gandys, a travel inspired clothing brand made for adventurers by adventurers.
Growing up Paul and I have always been inspired by the world's most iconic experiences in the most inspiring locations. From cruising on motorbikes through the Himalayan mountains to catching the sunrise at Cappadocia and opening up our kids campuses all over the world. Adventure has been ingrained in us ever since our parents took us out of school to travel alongside them.
Travel is a personal journey for everyone. It allowed us to have a fresh start after the tsunami. Solo travelling made us feel excited, yet intimidated and it also helped us toughen up mentally and emotionally.
Due to the pandemic over the last year, for the first time ever we’ve had to put travel on hold. It was a shock to the system as exploring is a great escape from our hectic lives and makes us feel like we don't just exist. Since we have been in lockdown, we’ve developed an even stronger desire to get outdoors and embrace the planet that surrounds us.
With freedom on the horizon and lockdown easing, it’s time to take on the outdoors - bigger and better than ever before. As much as we are itching to catch the next flight to one of our kids campuses, we are also excited to take living to a whole new level. Freedom has never been so appealing. It’s time to celebrate and grab each day, It’s time To Don’t Just Exist.
To stand out, risks have to be taken.
The question is... Are you game?
