Notes

2 March 2022

In her work in the pharmaceutical industry, Brooke felt the pressure to perform. It felt like work always wanted more from her.

So she took time off to travel the world solo. Exploring the world allowed her to explore herself: who she is, what she wants, what brings her joy.

Back home after 18 months in Europe, the Middle East and Central America, she’s now pondering some longer-term questions: where she wants to live and what she wants to do with her life.

You can follow Brooke’s travels and connect with her on Instagram @brooke.meets.world or on her blog brookemeetsworld.com.
