After eight months of continuous travel I have popped back home to Tasmania, Australia to spend the silly season with my family and friends (and of course soak up some of that hot Aussie sunshine).
In a moment of reflection I thought I would summarise some of the years adventures for you.
I hope you have enjoyed my adventures and I hope you have an amazing Christmas and New Years together with family, friends and fellow travellers.
Much Love and Hugs to you All xxx
