I have loved travel ever since I can remember. When I was 6 I asked my Mum to teach me French, she taught me the extreme basics and 1-10, but when I wanted more she had to go buy me a French dictionary. How I loved that book! I think I loved the language before the place but eventually I became obsessed with going to Paris and Egypt. Yet I was still only in primary school! My Grandmother was a big traveller and I remember receiving her post cards and looking through her photos. The Pyramids fascinated me the most. She clocked up an amazing 52 countries in her time, even doing the great overland trip by car from London, which included driving through Iran, Pakistan & Afghanistan back in the 60's. How different it must've been then! So far I'm up to 36 countries and 5 continents. I have the bug and I don't see it ever going away. But not only do I love travel for myself, I'm passionate about getting others excited about travel as well. Never ask me a travel related question if you want a short answer, because I'll just go on and on and on and on... I currently live in a remote community in north-eastern Arnhem Land in the Northern Territory, Australia. We're pretty isolated here and closer to Papua New Guinea than the nearest city! It's an experience in itself just living here. I enjoy writing about my travels and have written a few articles. I'm constantly trying to better myself at these with my main goal to be interesting, show my personality and not fluff it with too many wanky descriptions. I would love to hear any feedback you have about any of these articles and I hope you enjoy them.
