In May 2015 I set off on an eight-month adventure through Latin America. I began the trip in Cuba enjoying the amazing live music in beautiful Havana and eventually made it all the way down to Argentina to indulge my taste buds.

I spent my time in Central America exploring spectacular beaches in Mexico, learning to scuba dive in Honduras and hiking around the lush green volcanic landscapes in Guatemala. Then I set off on a sailing trip to reach South America, calling at a few tropical islands along the way.

In South America I found the Inca culture fascinating and enjoyed learning about their traditions and beliefs. I was continually blown away by the incredible landscapes that I visited, from the Peruvian Andes to the Bolivian Salt Flats to the stunning city of Rio de Janeiro.

My favourite memories have to include all the wonderful wildlife I saw: snorkelling with manatees, diving in pristine coral reefs with turtles and getting up close to sloths in the rainforest.

Ask me about scuba diving, exploring the Amazon, and the best beaches in Brazil.
