Welcome to The Avid Wayfarer, a website dedicated to inspired travel. It’s also dedicated to finding the best way to avoid the crowds at all local hotspots while happily queueing at the hottest coffee haunts around the globe. I’m a young Australian who loves to see the world, eat cake and imagine what it would be like to fly. 

A Melbourne girl born and bred, I relocated to the Gold Coast with my better half in 2013. Will always be a city girl at heart but I am embracing the ocean, one deadly sea creature at a time!

By day, I’m a tax lawyer (riveting stuff, I know!) and by night (or just outside working hours), I have a passion for health, fitness and team sport – namely touch football.

Luckily for you, my blog isn’t about tax law or touch. I hope you find the tips and local tricks in my blog useful in your travels. At the very least, I’ll show you where to find the most ridiculous desserts on this earth. Because who doesn’t love dessert (you weirdos).
