A Teach Abroad

 

 

Welcome to my world

This website contains the travel exploits of a Sydney teacher. It might bring back a memory of a trip that you once had or inspire you to get back out into the post-Covid world. I’ve tried to present my experiences and opinions as honestly as possible and if it helps in any way, then it’s been worth the effort. 

* Please note that this site is not for commercial consideration but more a sharing of life’s adventures.

General Information

If you are anything like me, I have 1,000 questions that need answering before travelling. There is no stupid questions, just one’s that are left unanswered or even worse, not asked. This page may allay a few fears, provide a little help or just take you one step closer to that seat that you secretly wish you were sitting in. Plus, it will provide an opportunity to tell you a little bit about myself.

My Personal Collection

As per the title, this section details my personal travels and my collection section.  The pages found here are;

  • Transport – is a page dedicated to the collection started in 2015 of all the train stations that I have visited during my travels.
  • Previous Trips – is a collection of individual sites that highlight the trips I have undertaken between 2013 – 2019. The tech skills have improved over the years so apologises for the early attempts.

"Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.”
