Meet The Luxurybackpacker!
Hey I’m Emma! I’m a luxury and adventure travel blogger & social media influencer obsessed with getting wander-fully lost and inspiring others to do the same. I’ve visited 57 countries from all corners of the globe, whilst travelling in luxury on a somewhat backpackers budget! Want to learn and travel like me? Awesome, let’s get started!
Australia: Join Me On The Big Loop!
Want to read and take inspiration from my road trip around Australia? Keep reading! For 6 months I toured the whole country in my Mitsubishi Pajero. I started out in Sydney and headed clockwise, discovering and documenting as I go along.
I want to show you just how amazing and beautiful this country is, and that it can be done on a budget despite the stigma of how expensive Australia is. So hopefully I can inspire you to one day circumnavigate Australia too!
