About me!
Join me as I embark on a year of solo travel!
Here, I will advocate an understanding approach to sustainable travel and discuss the broader socio-political issues surrounding travel.
Some of my posts will be more personal and will revolve around my journey as a solo traveller. From tips, rants, and most likely, some embarrassing moments.
If you’re interested in learning more about the socio-political and ethical issues surrounding travel, combined with the musings of a slightly hysterical 22-year-old, then please follow my blog so you don’t miss any posts.
Finally, if you love travel pictures, sunsets, and very short vlogs, then you might enjoy following me on Instagram and TikTok. If you prefer longer rants with more insight, you might enjoy my YouTube and Spotify!
