Michelle

I have been travelling for 25 years (mostly solo), starting out with a backpack at 17 and falling in love with the Greek islands (who wouldn't). In the early days I would spend a season or two working at a particular point of interest (Lindos - Rhodes, Lagos - Portugal, America - Florida, Sydney, Australia) then explore as much as possible. After my year in Australia I did a round-the-world-trip back home via Borneo, Malaysia, Thailand, Cambodia, Japan, America and France. As a 'grown up' I have been lucky to do a few short getaways in Eastern Europe and beyond (Bosnia, Serbia, Croatia, Moldova, Georgia, Turkey. I lived in South Africa for a few years working in the safari industry, and did several long road trips in my 1975 VW Beetle through Zambia, Zimbabwe, Botswana and Mozambique. Top of my list is Madagascar, Papua New Guinea and Costa Rica ... actually the list is too long.
