About the Author
My love of travel started early…I was the little kid excited to go to summer camp while all the others were crying with homesickness. I grew up knowing I wanted to travel to far and distant lands- so I got a degree in Environmental Science so I could join the Peace Corps- what more exotic and romantic thing could I do for travel! To learn Spanish- I decided- what better place than Spain- so I hopped on a plane did an AESU tour through Western Europe and landed in England and Spain for about 6 months. The Peace Corps, a few research projects, and other things found me in Guatemala, Belize and the Dominican Republic. After the Peace Corps I had to figure out what I wanted to be “when I grew up.” Realizing the Environmental field is growing and blowing- I decided to get an advanced degreee in Environmental Management hoping to get to posted in International Development type projects. I got stuck in the States for a couple of years- but I’ve been sprung. I now am living the dream- I moved to Australia on a 4 year visa thanks to my Environmental experience, took up surfing, and the rest you will be reading about.
My advice to those looking for long term travel- education! The world is starving for professionals…if you have the right skills- you can move anywhere. If any of you pop through Sydney- make sure to drop me a line!
