On the podcast today I'm talking to Ellie from thewanderingquinn.com, who always seems to be away in an exciting destination and takes every single opportunity to travel. We chat about spending the summer holidays in Wales as a child and growing up adventurous, which led to working at Camp Leaders in the USA in her late teens.
That fuelled an unshakeable passion for travel which has seen Ellie go all around the world as a solo traveller, and we discuss some of her experiences about going solo in Thailand and South America, and some of the barriers she faced.
Finally, we chat about striking a balance between wellbeing and travel, and fitness whilst on the road.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
