This week, Hannah Furst shares her tale of healing and synchronicity in her favourite place in the world - Koh Phangan in Thailand. Meanwhile, Morgan makes some connections of the more physical nature at Jamaica’s top “clothing-optional” resort.

Emma Mickle was in a freak accident while hiking in NZ that changed her life forever and we are so grateful to be able to share her story with you.

On 10 December, she embarks on an epic 1000km (620 miles) bike ride to raise awareness for spinal cord injuries (SCIs). All money raised goes to SpinalCure Australia, a not-for-profit organisation advocating for grants to fund research on a cure for SCIs. Did you know that around 250,000 - 500,000 people suffer an SCI every year? In Australia alone, there’s 1 new case every day on average. Experts say that a cure could be as close as 5-7 years away so every dollar counts right now!

We know Emma’s journey will inspire you as much as it did us; please join us in donating whatever you can to her SpinalCure Australia fundraiser at the below link:

Do you really need travel insurance? Spoiler alert: YES OF COURSE, ALWAYS AND EVERY TIME! We share two stories this week from women who will always be grateful their trip was covered after an unexpected stop at the hospital was added to their itinerary.

This is the first of our periodic informative episodes where we cover a more serious but important travel topic. To kick it off, we spend some time exploring why purchasing travel insurance is non-negotiable and covering some of the things you should think about when choosing a policy.
