Just the beginning 😊

Thanks for checking out my very first blogging website.

My name is Brooke. I’m a 27 year old Australian who has been living in the United Kingdom for the last 4 years.

Alongside teaching, crafting, and spending time with my loved ones, one of my greatest passions in life is travel. I’ve travelled to 31 countries so far in my life and count myself very blessed to have done so.

In just a few days time I’ll be off on another adventure- this time to South America! Something that I’ve wanted to do for many years but have never had the time, money or independence.

I was born with a rare eye condition called Aniridia. This rare condition leaves me with 6/60 vision – or more commonly known as ‘legally blind’. Having this condition has, and continues to cause different difficulties in my life but I want to live my best life regardless.

I’m grateful that I have my health despite my eyesight and that’s more than some people have, so whilst sometimes it’s easier to feel frustrated and sad about my limitations I try to look at the positives.

I like to push myself to achieve whatever my head desires. This could be anything from graduating university, becoming a teacher, moving to the other side of the world, travelling, or just living my best life.

Why blog?

• I want to document my travel adventures on more than just Facebook. I want to share them with those who are interested.
• Because it will help me focus my own ideas about where I’m at and where I’m going.
• For others who are on the path to living their best life despite any perceived set backs such as vision impairments or other disabilities.
• For anyone who wants to see travel or general life tips and hacks I’ve found useful just in general or for anyone who is legally blind/vision impaired.
• For anyone who wants to follow my journey as I continue to climb up and out of a slippery slope of anxiety and depression which has consumed my life over the last 12 months… and see how I have changed situations in my life to combat this.

• I’ll be covering anything from…
• Travel updates
• Life updates
• Tips and tricks for vision impairment children and adults
• Stories

I’d love to connect with those who are interested in reading my blog. Drop by and say hello! 😊
