Danielle Willett
I was born and raised in sunny Queensland, Australia. I was lucky enough to go on my first overseas adventure when I was just 18, and this was where the bug got me. Over 20 countries later and I’m only just getting started!
I have spent time exploring parts of Europe and the UK, and have had many adventures through Hawaii, and the East and West Coasts of the United States. I have hit all but two states in Australia, I have ventured to Asia twice and I have visited Africa seven times, where I lived and worked amongst lions, tigers, cheetahs, and hyenas.
For most of 2017, I will be running tours to Uluru (think red dirt, outback Australia), all while running my own online lifestyle and wellness business. I can’t wait to share some insider tips on a huge number of incredible spots (both tourist attractions and off the beaten track adventures) that this beautiful world has to offer!

Francesca Murray – Los Angeles
I’m a California girl who’s got an incurable case of the travel bug! I have a childlike curiosity that has gotten me into deep conversations with strangers, sparked unlikely friendships, and landed me in some pretty cool places across the world. In 2009 I studied abroad in Portovenere, Italy and my life has never been the same. Since then I’ve lived in France, Martinique and traveled to 20 countries and counting!
Favourite destination: Definitely Martinique! It is the perfect combination of two places I love – France and the Caribbean. It is kind of like the Hawaii of France, meaning it’s a part of Europe but is located in the Caribbean. Everyone should go at least once!
Next travel Destination: Las Vegas! I’ve been going almost every year since I was a kid. Although the itinerary has changed over time, it’s always a place I consider to be really fun and unique!
Favourite food: Italian! My ideal meal is anything with pasta – I love it!
Scariest adventure: I don’t have one yet, but I would love to try scuba diving one day! So far snorkeling has been daring enough for me!
Scariest adventure: Riding elephants to Thailand – actually riding them wasn’t scary, just the adventure to get there with only a moped and no GPS was quite an experience.
