Welcome to our family travel blog of our travel adventures including our journey from England to Australia, and back again.
We hope you find this blog interesting as we navigate the ups and downs of family and expat life.
For as long as I can remember I have wanted to explore the world. I’ve been lucky enough to visit more than 50 countries. I love backpacking around the world, have enjoyed living and working in many different countries as a freelance journalist, and spent a year sailing around the world on a small sail boat.
Fast forward to today and we love to have family adventures near and far, exploring new places and travelling to different cities, sights and exploring new countries. If we aren’t out discovering somewhere new, I get itchy feet!
We moved from England to Australia in October 2018 to live the “Australian Dream”, returning to the UK mid-pandemic in September 2021. Early 2023 we made the move back to Australia again, officially becoming “pingpong poms”. While in Australia in 2021 we adopted a street kitten from Canberra and our furry pal is now firmly part of our family and has travelled with us to England and back again to Australia.
If you’ve ever wondered what it’s like to move to the other side of the world, what it’s really like to be a “ping pong pom”, including the ups and the downs of moving to the other side of the world, or if you just love a bit of armchair travelling, then this is the blog for you.
We hope you enjoy reading and sharing our experiences as we enjoy sunshine and survive snags.
Please get in contact if you want to find out more, we’d love to hear from you.
