About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To find a way to be in two places at once, so I can keep travelling, but also visit my mates and family at home any time I want.

ABOUT ME

I'm a happy go lucky kind of lady and can be found working as a nurse in Australia when I'm not rambling around the world somewhere. Right now I am in Vietnam and plan to make this home for the next yearor so. I'm a bit of a chatterbox and I love meeting new people and sharing stories and ideas. I'm pretty outdoorsy and am happiest in the bush or at the beach. I love reading and my new favourite thing is my Kindle. Having hundreds of books in my handbag is my kind of heaven. I love food and cooking (or trying too) and tasting new dishes is one of my favourite parts of traveling.

PHILOSOPHY

"Be excellent to each other."

Bill and Ted.

Teach, Learn, Share

Listen to your intuition, if something feels dodgy it probably is. You don't have to say no straight away, just step away and have a think before making a decision about something that doesnt quite feel right, even if for no rational reason.

Always pack a torch, a cup, and more underwear than you'll ever think you'll need cause you will run out.

If you are staying at a hostel and planning on a big night, put your toothbrush and toothpaste in an easy to find location for when you get home so you dont wake everyone up looking for it.

Always carry a little bit of toilet paper with you.

If you manage to travel the world and not get either ripped off, robbed, screwed over or loose something valuble, you'll probably be the first. Don't let it get you down, suck it up and keep enjoying your trip!
