Welcome!

Welcome to the latest blog by RachieJane. Here I will be sharing: some travel stories; some travel tips and advice; some musings on various topics relating to travel; some experiences; and generally just some travel related posts.

My travel history: I spent 2013 in Australia. Whilst there I worked for 5months on a sheep station and then travelled around the country, doing pretty much, a lap of the whole country. I spent 3 weeks in New Zealand during that year.

In 2014, I spent 2 weeks couch surfing in Switzerland and a month travelling in Indonesia. Quiet compared to the previous year.

2015: 2 weeks volunteering with sea-turtles in Costa Rica with my sister; a month in Sumatra; and a month volunteering with Elephants in Cambodia- this all to begin the year. I finished the year with 3 months volunteering at an English school in Sumatra, with trips to Thailand and Malaysia; before heading to Cambodia which is where I am currently.

So 2016 has started with 4 months volunteering at an NGO teaching English in Cambodia and I will shortly be going on to visit Vietnam. Who knows where it will go next.

Prior to 2013 my travelling was fairly limited: school trip to Paris; trip to Disneyland; 2 cadet trips to the Netherlands to compete in the Nijmegen Marches; a fortnight in Canada with cadets; and a cruise around the Mediterranean.

 So I have a bit of travel experience. Some of what I share will be location specific, some will be general; some will be advice, and some will just be general interest.

I hope you enjoy the wandering minds of Rachie and Tig xxx
