We were delighted that Dave and Deb of The Planet D could spare some time in their busy traveling schedule to talk to us about the upcoming FijiMe Tour. What inspired them to take their recreational adventure blog full-time? What was their first Planet D experience together? Where will they be going on the FijiMe Tour? Read the interview here:
