Guest Writing
Articles I've written for other travel publications and blogs.
How I funded a full year in Australia by stringing together seven different jobs, from hostel reception to farm labour. I share exactly how I landed each one (Facebook groups, hostel networks, and labour agencies), and why the work itself ended up being one of the most rewarding parts of the trip rather than just a way to pay for it.
A guide to the "micro-cation" — brief, strategic city trips lasting around 24 hours that maximise travel experiences within tight schedules. Covers destination picks, itinerary planning, and booking strategies for quick getaways without the week-long commitment.
A step-by-step guide to buying a second-hand motorbike in Hanoi — the best way to explore Vietnam on your own terms. I cover where to look, what to check before you buy, how to negotiate, and the paperwork (or lack of it) you need to know about.
Moving from cheap-and-easy backpacking in Southeast Asia to Australia, where the cost of living turned exploring into just getting by. After a couple of weeks of adjusting, I learned to embrace the slower pace and found the trip opened up through communal, unhurried experiences rather than rushing between sights.
