Share a story about the furthest you’ve ever travelled from home. The furthest I have travelled from my home in Sydney, Australia is Iceland. I have been pretty privileged married to a European (husband is Dutch) as I’ve travelled extensively throughout Europe, UK, Scandinavia, parts of Asia, Dubai, South Africa, Japan, NZ, and Fiji (plus…
