Over the past few weeks I’ve learnt a very valuable lesson, or two. Family means absolutely everything and they can leave you in the blink of an eye! Tonight I jet out a day later than planned because sadly we had to say our final farewells to my crazy, hilarious Aunty, who will be incredibly missed! This time back home is the longest I’ve been still for a long time, and as much as I enjoyed being back in the presence of family and friends it has been a turbulent time of emotions, although, I am so glad I made the decision to come home! Europe, I’m coming back for round three of work, and pumped for all the challenges and events you are about to throw at me! ✈️💪🏼 *Insert photo of me fake being with my thoughts for your attention and the next with family!* . . . . . #studentflights #girlslovetravel #sheisnotlost #neverstoptravelling #neverstopexploring #socialaussies #travellingaussies #traveldames #girlsthattravel #traveladdictedladies #roamtheglobe #dametravelworld #lifeofadventurer #girlywanderlust #globelletravelers #letsgosomewherenew #neverstopneversettle #chasingwanderlust #tasteintravels #girlsvsglobe #shetravels #sheisnotlost #busaboutcrew #ilovesydney #sydneylife #sydney_insta #travelbusinessbabes #traveladdictsuk via @preview.app
I FINALLY DROPPED A VLOG! 😱 ⠀⠀ Look, y’all may think that my life overseas is easy, and I’m on a consistent holiday and that to get here was easy, and ya know, why not become a tour guide because every afternoon looks like this or better! 💁🏼‍♀️ Well guess what, ya bloody wrong! And my new vlog (link in the bio) tells about becoming a tour guide, what a day may look like, and I answer a few FAQ that I got sent about 3 months ago when I asked 😂 Check it out, and tell me what you honestly think! ✌🏼. . . . . #studentflights #girlslovetravel #sheisnotlost #neverstoptravelling #neverstopexploring #socialaussies #travellingaussies #traveldames #girlsthattravel #traveladdictedladies #roamtheglobe #dametravelworld #lifeofadventurer #girlywanderlust #globelletravelers #letsgosomewherenew #neverstopneversettle #chasingwanderlust #tasteintravels #girlsvsglobe #shetravels #sheisnotlost #busabout #busaboutcrew #travelbusinessbabes #traveladdicts #ipreview via @preview.app
I bet @mrstommylittle was stoked with the amount ladies who were lining up to see him, surely being a comedian is much better than the swipes 😂 Honestly was a great show, will definitely be buying tickets the next tour you have! Also was a great night with the lovely @samarahawkins94 to start her birthday weekend! 🎉🎉. . . . . . #powerhouse #tommylittle #brisbanecity #mybrisbane #brisbanelife #thisisbrisbane #visitbrisbane #travelbusinessbabes #traveladdicts #socialaussies #ipreview via @preview.app
“Hello, my name is Rachel.

Is it lame if I say this angel is spreading her wings and flying? ⠀⠀ Lol I hate myself for that 😂 1. I ain’t no angel, 2. I already have done quite a few rounds! 3. This is the first “angel wing” photo you’ll find on my insta! I know, shock horror why have I not posted such a #typicalwhitegirl photo before! ⠀⠀ Every time I leave though it gets less and less scarier and I feel like each time I’m even less prepared than the last 😂 ⠀⠀ What has been a moment that you’ve felt like you’ve “finally spread your wings?” Mainly what I’m asking is, when was there a moment and you said “fuck it, I’m going?” ✈️. . . . . #brisbanecity #discoverbrisbane #thisisbrisbane #brisbanelife #visitbrisbane #studentflights #girlslovetravel #sheisnotlost #neverstoptravelling #neverstopexploring #socialaussies #travellingaussies #traveldames #girlsthattravel #traveladdictedladies #roamtheglobe #dametravelworld #lifeofadventurer #girlywanderlust #globelletravelers #letsgosomewherenew #neverstopneversettle #chasingwanderlust #tasteintravels #girlsvsglobe #shetravels #sheisnotlost #ipreview via @preview.app
I do love a city skyline, and sure, Brisbane is nice and all, but I am looking for a grander view! Good thing I’m jetting back off to the other side of the world in a month to help y’all “Create Your Own Adventure” with @busabout.official 🚌 And prepare yourselves for my instagram to be an unintentional theme of turquoise as I’ll be getting based down in Croatia, my favourite country on our network!🇭🇷 Going into my third year with Busabout and am happy to say, I ticked my starting goal of becoming a Croatian guide ✅ Let’s do this 💪🏼. . . . . . #busabout #busaboutcrew #brisbanecity #discoverqueensland #brisbanelife #viewsofbrisbane #thisisbrisbane #studentflights #girlslovetravel #sheisnotlost #neverstoptravelling #neverstopexploring #socialaussies #travellingaussies #traveldames #girlsthattravel #traveladdictedladies #roamtheglobe #dametravelworld #lifeofadventurer #girlywanderlust #globelletravelers #letsgosomewherenew #neverstopneversettle #chasingwanderlust #tasteintravels #girlsvsglobe #shetravels #sheisnotlost #ipreview via @preview.app

Last week was the first time the lil sis @annaliseyoung and I have ever seen a proper ballet, and the first time in a while I worn heels, if you caught my story a week ago, you would have seen . . . I struggled . . . Immensely! 😬 The ballet was amazing! It was the Alice’s Adventure in Wonderland, performed by @ausballet. I’m glad this was my first ballet as it was a little more on the contemporary side, rather than a straight up lyrical ballet. It was fabulous and would love to watch another ballet along the same lines performed by them! 👯‍♀️. . . . . #brisbane #lyrictheatre #theaustralianballet #qpac #brisbaneconventioncentre #alicesadventureinwonderland #aliceinwonderland #theatre #discoverbrisbane #mybrisbane #discoverqueensland #thisisqueensland #brisbanelife #danceyourheartout #doyoutravel #exploremore #passportable #stayandwander #traveldeeper #justbackfrom #traveladdict #socialaussies #travellingaussies #neverstopexploring #traveladdictedladies #ipreview via @preview.app
So I’ve been back home for 3 months now, it’s honestly flown by! But so glad I’ve been able to finally celebrate some amazing things with my nearest and dearest! 💕 The other weekend finding out that the lovely @ashleylaurenwelsh and @w3lshy93 are having another little boy, no doubt he will be just as adorable as the first 😍 So excited to meet him when he finally comes 🤗💙 fingers crossed I won’t be as awkward with the new born as I was with the first 😂 . . . . . . #finallyhome #socialaussies #lifeofadventurer #girlslovetravel #sheisnotlost #neverstoptravelling #neverstopexploring #travellingaussies #traveldames #girlsthattravel #traveladdictedladies #roamtheglobe #dametravelworld #girlywanderlust #globelletravelers #letsgosomewherenew #neverstopneversettle #chasingwanderlust #tasteintravels #girlsvsglobe #shetravels #ipreview via @preview.app
