Kreator
Hey! I'm Charlotte, a British-born digital nomad who has been on the road for 8 years. I grew up in the Canary Islands in Spain and after graduating University in 2016 I moved to Australia. This is where I picked up the oh so addictive travel bug!
I've been to 35+ countries and throughout my journey have recorded must-have travel tips, ones I wish someone would have shared with me before my own adventures. I love sharing tips to make other people's trips smoother. Think of me as your travel BFF, here to help you dodge as much unnecessary chaos and stress as possible. With insider advice, based on my own personal experiences, mishaps, and travel fails, you'll be equipped with the wisdom to navigate any adventure!
For a living, I have many jobs within the digital creative space. One of my main areas of focus is on creating beautiful photo and video content from around the world for my clients, or for my own socials. I love capturing moments and sharing these stories with my followers, the good, bad and the ugly.
I'm excited to see where your journey takes you. Where to next?
