The waiting is finally over my tickets are booked! After months of limbo in the UK (selling my car, reflecting, and upgrading my gear), I’m heading back to Siem Reap, Cambodia before continuing on to India.
This is the final part of my Grounded series, where I’ve shared what happens between adventures: when “home” doesn’t feel like home anymore, how menopause reshaped my body and confidence, and the drama of saying goodbye to my little Mini.
Now it’s time for movement again. New laptop, camera, microphone, and even a fresh backpack (you’ll see which one in my next video!) — I’m ready for this next chapter.
Follow along for solo travel inspiration, midlife adventures, and Cambodia + India travel stories. Because even in the pauses, life keeps unfolding.
