CURRENT MISSION

Find my next meal... It's all about the food!

ABOUT ME

Hello! My name is Ashley and I'm from Melbourne, Australia.

The things I love most about travel are meeting new people, learning about different cultures and definitely trying different foods (I'm a big foodie!). I left Australia in 2014 to spend some time living and working in the UK and exploring Europe/the world. Quitting my job and packing up my things to go on this adventure was by far the best thing I ever did! I'm currently on the last few months, making my way home via Eastern Europe.

I'm a clean, considerate and respectful person and also love good conversations over a few wines.

PHILOSOPHY

My personal philosophy is pretty simple: always be yourself because life is far too short for anything else. And always respect other people for being whoever they are!

There is no wrong way of living life, just different...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Nothing can top the feeling when you cross the finish line of a marathon. I have done a couple now and guess I am a bit addicted. I think it is the most amazing thing you can do and everyone should do it at least once in their life!

I have done much cooler stuff than marathon running but I guess I really do think its something everyone should do so that is why chose it as my amazing thing.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am more than happy to cook meals! I've done cooking classes in Thailand, Laos, Cambodia and Vietnam so have a few recipes up my sleeve!

As above, I am always happy to share a good meal and some great wine!
