Where's home?

Exeter, Devon! But it hasn’t been home for a little while now. Made the move to Aus in 2019 and haven’t looked back. Happily now calling Byron Bay home, time to recharge the crystals…

Languages spoken:

English, until I've had a few bevvies and then I can talk a bit of Spanish!

Time spent in Australia:

2 years so far and loving every minute of it!

A little about me:

After finishing uni in Manchester and a quick stint in investment banking, I decided to take a short break before selling myself to the corporate world. Fast forward 3 and a half years and the break is going strong. Surfing every day seems to suit me pretty well!

Why is Aussie so special...

Oz is INCREDIBLE! My favourite spot though has to be K'Gari AKA... Fraser Island is my stand-out spot. 4x4’s with a big group of people seeing amazing sites and followed by a party - epic.

Fraser is my stand-out, but my overall favourite thing to do is explore the national parks winding up the East Coast. Taking a van in-land and avoiding the crowds, finding incredible campsites next to lakes, waterfalls, mountains. There’s something about waking up with no phone service next to a waterfall that can’t be beaten.

And Finally...

If you are considering travelling Aussie or NZ – do it! I have no regrets whatsoever about travelling and it’s the best thing I’ve ever done.
