She was working in Bundaberg, gathering a portfolio of stories on drug busts, sugar cane and turtles, when she decided there must be more to life and turned to a world map for inspiration. She bought a plane ticket to London and began the journey of a lifetime across 28 countries with her rather wild other half. She loved it and she’s still not over the shock that came at the end of the travel in the form of a proposal… this wild man wanted to marry her! Now 24 years old Laura’s roles include chief blogger, tent maker, route mapper and professional haggler.
