About me:
Hi, I'm a travel writer from Australia. I don't race out to have bold adventures in new lands. I just seem to find them by accident! I've helped to push a tour bus through the mud of a Roman campsite, only to get it bogged worse than ever. The bus ended up right next to the tent of an unlucky German family. I've tried playing Gaelic football in near-zero temperatures in the rain in Dublin. Being uncoordinated and asthmatic didn't help. And I've been lost, broke and distraught in the middle of a wild street party in Zurich.
