The Wanderer Returns - Cambodia


The final stop on my trip was Cambodia where I was taking part in a two week teaching bootcamp in a town called Kampong Cham. We had around 50 adults each week who are English teachers in schools around Cambodia, and come to the bootcamp to improve their English and learn different techniques to help them teach their students better. The programme is so worthwhile and is supported by the company I work for, Festival Republic. They have been raising money to build another building at a school called Krola, and they also fund a teeth brushing scheme at Tonlebet school, so the children are able to brush their teeth 6 times a week and visit a dental clinic. The work that is being done by Bike4Cambodia is incredible and really helps the Cambodians learn new skills and have a better life.

The Wanderer Returns - Australia Part 3


You can take a look at part 1 and part 2 of my adventure here and here, but part 3 concludes my Australian adventure. We had such an amazing time, met loads of awesome people and did everything that we wanted to do including scuba diving the Great Barrier Reef and sky diving over Mission Beach - more on those 2 later.

The Wanderer Returns - Australia Part 1


Travelling is good for the soul. After spending 2 months away I really believe this is true. I decided, on a bit of a whim, to go travelling for a bit as I had just finished work and thought why not? I managed to recruit up my friend Emma and off we went! We spent a month in Australia, a week in Bali and 2 weeks in Cambodia teaching English.

W. Travels: Edinburgh

A view of Edinburgh from the top of a hill

Last weekend I took a long overdue trip up to stay with my aunt who lives just outside of Edinburgh in East Lothian. I had such a lovely time and wanted to share some pictures and a bit about what we did whilst I was there.
