ABOUT ME

Hello, my name is Rachel. I spent the first five years of my life in Melbourne however, grew up in Brisbane where I am currently based. I have travelled a fair bit in my 20 years and plan on spending this New Years within the country. My closest friends and I have decided to embark on a road 'adventure' down the east coast. There will be limited planning and no pre-conceptions just us, a car, tent, probably a mountain of clothing and hopefully some great people to share the summer.

PHILOSOPHY

My philosophy is still developing.
