SO the Journey Continues to BALI! ....
Nearly a year ago I left the land of England to pursue my adventure to the other side of the planet, the land of Australia!
I have blogged only a few times during this epic adventure and I felt compelled to share with my beautiful people whats been happening thus far.
So it all began in Australia...
Australia was an EPIC experience of rather large proportions to say the least! I landed in Melbourne nervous as hell and so sad to leave behind such great people,but I embarked on this adventure as my travel bug has always pushed me to see new places and faces and to really live life to its fullest!
Australia was mental to say the least! Living with completely crazy people (nearly being homeless) was the beginning of what was to become a somewhat life changing experience!
By my second week I was working for a fashion brand, by the second month I was acting on one of the biggest TV shows Neighbours!
My Australian adventure has taught me so much about life and meeting some amazing people along the way has given me a new energy! There we so many times I just wanted to leave because of some challenging experiences but I pushed through it all and carried on. Visiting Sydney for New year, Flying to Tasmania to see my good friend Marni and her new bundle of joy were some of the highlights of my amazing trip!+Australia Is a beautiful vast place and full of opportunities, the laid back lifestyle and the quality of life really does pull me to stay but alas my journey continued to Bali!
As soon as I landed in Bali the tropical heat hits you and the air smelt different! I came here to reunite with my family on my journey back to the UK.I would would describe Bali in three words, Enchanting, Crazy and RANDOM!
The roads are mental for a start! There are no rules and everyone drives the way they want in a crazy rush! Crossing the road felt like a life threatening experience where getting hit by a passing car or bike was a real danger! The craziness of the Balinese party scene is seen almost every night in +Seminyak as tourists flood into bars and clubs creating quite a noise, there is a scene for everyone!
The spiritual side of Bali is such strong contrast to the crazy party scene and you can find yourself in a spiritually enlightening temple surrounded by beautiful scenery and a energy which cannot be defined with words!
One of the most emotional parts of my travelling so far was reuniting with my family, it was meant to be my whole family but customs stopped my sister and brother from coming due to visa restrictions... None the less meeting my mum and dad after nearly a year was a beautiful moment and reconnecting with people who love me unconditionally literally made me cry tears of happiness!
I would like to finish this travel blog and chapter of my travelling by saying a few words: get out there and travel! It truly does give you a love for life, a depth to your soul that nothing else can. There was a famous quote once that said: "Travelling is the only thing you buy that makes you richer" This is a quote I live by and will always live by! It is a feeling of great freedom of going into the unknown and finding your inner self, the inner strength does get tested but you grow and evolve and each step of the way you learn so much about life and so much about yourself!
So to conclude (for now) I am sitting in a Bali airport about to fly back to the UK but my heart and soul is that of an adventurer and I am sure ill be blogging soon on my next crazy and amazing adventure!

One Love!
