My most embarrassing/funniest travel story is...

Losing my rag in Los Angeles Greyhound bus station after weeks of traveling, when the woman behind the counter tried to charge me a late fee – I had accidentally booked the tickets for the day before. It happened 7 years ago and I still feel guilty. I was really tired.

My favourite travel photo I’ve taken is...

This photo outside of the Powerhouse in Brisbane. It was about 8 years ago. It looks like I’ve spent a lot of time trying to create an effect, or put a filter on it, but honestly it was a cheap instant disposable camera and I just needed to take one more photo to finish the roll! It hangs in my living room now.

My best travel hack/accessory is...

A clothes peg to prop your toothbrush up when you arrive, and doggy poop bags – they take up no room and they’re great for dirty underwear, dirty shoes, leaky bottles!

The next item off my travel bucket list will be...

Hopefully Norway early next year, looking forward to seeing some Northern Lights.

The best place I've ever been to is...

Seattle. I wasn’t there for very long, but I loved it.

My dream travel destination is...

I’d really love to go to Alaska. Northern lights, ice fishing, plenty of snow and creatures. I’m not much good in hot weather!
