About Us

…for if you’re feeling fernweh like we are.

Native Vagabonds is an online platform and soon-to-be brand, born out of two sisters’ love of sharing stories, talking ideas, seeking adventure near and far and a love/hate relationship for a native home in New York.

Neither one of us fully understood how unique it was to have been born and bred in one of the world’s largest cities until we decided to showcase it to others — to those who have had the same experiences as natives of a big city and those who haven’t. We created this space to document when we’ve been hit with fernweh, but also as a means to start becoming decent city dwellers and better distant travelers. We know we have a lot of ground to cover and a lot of love to reinvent for cities we’ve been to and lived in, and those we haven’t. We hope this space can help us, and you, do that.

travel bugs and hugs,

the natives
