I've been the working holiday visa,  the backpacker and short break from reality traveller. This time I wanted to do something a little different.

VAWAA gives me a base and something to focus amongst the temporary and buoyant lifestyle of travel. You connect with locals and become apart of their community and daily life, and, if you're really lucky you make long term friendships and connections. 

How cool is that? 

I've rediscovered the enjoyment I get from creating in multiple mediums. Roser was a real inspiration for thinking seriously about my artistic aspirations and career goals. 

I've made a long list of 'to-do's' to make that happen and noted down key values of mine to help keep me on track. 

VAWAA helped me to quieten the white noise and amplify what's important to me and how to go about transforming my life to reflect my mindset.
