Hi

I´m 37 and have lived in London most of my life. I studied English at University and was an actress for a few years before moving into marketing - most recently working for Arsenal Football Club.

But...life is too short to be little...and that's why I´ve just given up my job to go travelling for a year :)

If you are looking for an incisive and insightful travel blog that imparts all sorts of great information, hot tips and delicious details on lesser known places to visit in the world, weeeeell....i'll try but I need to level with you now and say I seem to have spent most of my time to date taking photos of plates of food and scouring pharmacies to see how women in other countries get their hair so goddamn shiny.

This is very much a diary - such as it is... about my journey. Both the outer one that´s taking me through Brazil, Argentina, Uruguay, Mexico, Guatemala and Belize with a short pit stop in Vegas (where I either blow my budget in Sin City or make enough money for some spiritual redemption for the second leg) followed by Australia, China and South East Asia. But there will no doubt be some musings on the inward journey too.

Welcome to the world according to me :)
