What inspired you to become an apprentice for 7in7 Year 3?
I was very inspired by the concept of 7in7, and the idea of being in a room with people who are living a nomadic lifestyle. For me, it’s all about serving the community while learning from everyone!
What are your plans for the future?
Short-term wise, I am building a one-on-one lifestyle coaching business to help people live a holistic healthy lifestyle through connecting their mind, body, and spirit.

Where are you from?
Sydney, Australia
What is your favorite part of traveling?
I love the happy accidents; the things you’d never expect to find by just wandering around a city or the fruits of spontaneous decisions. Some of my favorite moments have come out of just being in the right place at the right time – like arriving right as a week-long fiesta started in Malta or catching the last day of only three weeks that the Royal Botanic Gardens in Brussels are open.
What excites you most about becoming location independent?
It combines everything I’ve ever wanted but never thought was possible – the ability to do work that I care about, a flexible schedule that can work best with how I work best and traveling the world.
What inspired you to become an apprentice for 7in7 Year 3?
I’ve been flirting with becoming fully location independent over the first year and now I’m fully ready to take that next step to build my own business and thrive in my work as well as emotionally. I’m excited about the opportunity to collaborate with 7in7 to make this happen.
What are your plans for the future?
I’m leaving it open. At the moment, I’m really excited about some projects I’m currently working on to build up my own social media business and also a podcast with two of my friends called The Wrong Way. Beyond that, I’m just excited to keep trying to figure out what’s next.
Bonus points: What’s a special skill you have?✨
I dance contemporary and lyrical.
