Hello other amazing souls!
I hope your experiences have been plentiful and educational thus far. Let me tell you a but about myself:
I am a solo-traveler from America on a year long working visa trying to see as much of Australia as I can! I recently graduated from Loyola in Chicago with a degree in Molecular Biology on the pre-med track, I was an EMT in the states. After being in the medical field for a while I saw a huge issue with return customers when the problem should have been solved in the first place. So I decided to start working on a health improvement project to help people better understand how they are able to tackle their health in the most manageable way (I would love to talk more about it while we are together). To work on this project I don't really need a home so traveling is the best option for me so far. I recently touched down here and have two more months in Townsville before I continue to other parts of Aussie. If you have any tips for me, I am totally new to this and if there is any way you can see that I can help you, I would loovveee to lend a hand. I hope to meet many of your smiling faces soon!
Cheers,
Kristie
