Hi there. I've worked as a freelance journalist for the past seven years, which has allowed me to travel all over the world by myself, writing and taking pictures of all the interesting things I see. I've pretty much travelled solo since I was 16, reckoning it to be the best way of meeting people and having the most adventures. Travelling alone can be both exhausting and daunting because there's nobody to act as a buffer between you and the world around you, or pick you up after a hard day. Or help to make decisions... (I'm rubbish at making decisions.) But on the flip side, everything that happens to you is you're own doing, and you can direct it however and wherever you want. You can please yourself. And you learn a great deal and have heaps of fun in the process. At the moment, I can't seem to get enough of South Africa, New York, Cambodia and Nepal. But I'd really love to visit Japan, Norway, Mali and India.
