Originally I grew up in England but feel very lucky to have had the opportunity to travel globally from a young age (Australia was of course my favourite). I've lived in Australia since 2016 and before settling on the amazing Sunshine Coast with my family, I ensured I travelled and had the opportunity to visit each state. Over the years here I’ve travelled all the way from Adelaide in South Australia right up to Port Douglas in North Queensland, along with trips to Perth and Alice Springs.
