About me

I am the type of traveler who wants to see and do as much of the world as I can. My main focus however, being an animal lover and a Zoo Keeper by trade, is wildlife of course. I have a very long list of species I wish to see in the wild and so far all my trips have ticked off at least 5 each time. I love travelling and getting to know the people of each country that I visit. There is something magical about meeting someone half way across the planet, that lives in a completely different world to mine here in Australia, it makes me so happy to get to know them and be apart of their world even just for a moment. From the USA, to all over Australasia, all the way up to Europe and of course Africa, I have been lucky enough to travel to over 20 countries in my life, and I plan to check off a whole heap more in the near future.

Africa however is one place that does not disappoint at all when it comes to meeting such amazing people and seeing some of the most amazing wildlife in open spaces. I have visited the continent four times since 2006, two of which have been in 2018 and 2019. It is without doubt the one place in the world that has stolen my heart and soul and every visit makes it harder to leave. I have met so many people from different counties in Africa whom I still keep in contact with and have also caught up with over the years. I also had the opportunity to travel to Volunteer in South Africa in 2012 which I recommend for anyone who loves animals, wants to make a difference and really wants to see the real Africa.

Basically, travel is my happy place!
