I always had a desire to travel from a young age, and while I didn’t get to travel much as a kid, I was still lucky enough to visit some of the UK’s favourite destinations, like France and Spain with my family. We would camp around and I thought it was the biggest adventure ever!

After I left my small city of Derby and went to University in Sheffield, I started to meet people who had travelled further and I became obsessed with the idea that I could actually explore this wonderful world of ours – if I worked really hard and saved, I could do it!

Whilst at Uni, I dipped my toes into travel with small trips to Europe, gearing me up for a big adventure I had not yet planned. Then, while working in a bar together, I met a friend who suddenly made that dream seem more realistic – she was moving to New Zealand and asked if I wanted to go with her.
