A Physio recovering from an ACL and MCL reconstruction and Lateral Tenodesis, a Foodie, and an Amateur Explorer

On the 11th February I had an accident skiing. In doing so I managed to rupture my ACL and MCL… whoops 🤕

On the 8th March I had an operation to reconstruct my ACL and MCL, as well as having a lateral tenodesis.

Mum suggested I should keep a diary so I thought by documenting the whole rehab journey, yes I know it will be along one. It will be a great way to be kept accountable and to remember what I did and the journey I went on. From the ups and downs of injuries to all the physio I will need along the way.

MAGNETIC ISLAND 🌴 ✨

Here’s a cheeky throwback to one of my absolute favourite places in Australia. I fell in love with the “barbie” cars, wild koalas, beautiful beaches, incredible walks and beautiful birds.

If anyone is considering an East Coast trip, this has to be at the top of your places to stop.

Maggie stole my heart and I can’t wait to one day return. Blog post with all my recommendations coming soon ....

Bye for Now ✌🏼

SNORKELLING THE GREAT BARRIER REEF, CAIRNS ✨ Si

SNORKELLING THE GREAT BARRIER REEF, CAIRNS ✨

Since I can remember I have adored swimming. I’ve been a water baby from the get go. From racing competitively at a young age, to now just find beauty and peace in water. Visiting and swimming in the Great Barrier Reef has always been at the top of my bucket list. So of course when I got to Cairns, I had to make the most of it. And there was no better way to end my trip in Australia.

HUGE thanks to @ratpacktravel for organising the trip and @passionsofparadise for making it such an awesome day out.

Check out my blog post here: http://charlotte-explores.com/index.php/2020/08/20/snorkelling-the-great-barrier-reef-in-cairns/ or check the link in my bio.

I can’t wait for the world to open again and I can do my PADI!

Stay safe

Bye for Now ✌🏻🌻

Waterfalls and Rice Paddies, Lombok ✨

A highlight of my week in Lombok was a 4 hour hike along beautiful rice paddies with the chance to swim in a waterfall halfway through.

For all my thoughts, tips and more photos check out this blog post: http://charlotte-explores.com/index.php/2020/08/06/rice-terraces-and-tetebatu-waterfall-lombok/ or the link in my bio!

5 Lakes Walk, Zermatt ⛰✨

After deciding to escape safely and momentarily from the U.K. We packed up our car and drove for 13 hours before we arrived in Switzerland or as I like to call it home.

During our one day of our week away, we decided to go and do one of the more iconic hikes in Zermatt, to try and glimpse the Matterhorn in all its glory.

For all my thoughts, tips and more photos check out this blog post: http://charlotte-explores.com/index.php/2020/08/02/5-lakes-walk-zermatt/ or the link in my bio!

So the last few months have been very weird. However I’ve deffo had some highlights ranging from sheep and puppy cuddles, a birthday beach day and many picnics. Not what I had planned for these months but memorable nonetheless. Also I promise I do own more clothes than my dungarees ✨💛🌻

Solo travel - what’s the fuss surrounding it?! I always wanted to take myself off and travel the world, so I thought I’d write about why doing it alone is one of the best things you could ever do. Check it out here: http://charlotte-explores.com/index.php/2020/06/01/why-you-should-travel-solo/

What I wish I knew before solo travelling.

So if you are looking for tips and my thoughts then check out my thoughts here: http://charlotte-explores.com/index.php/2020/05/07/what-i-wish-i-knew-before-travelling-solo/.

So as virtual travel is the only thing possible right now, today I decided to write all about Skydiving. Not only does it provide some amazing photos. It is also best thing I have ever done and something I would do in a heartbeat again. As always the link is here: http://charlotte-explores.com/index.php/2020/05/05/skydiving-in-taupo-nz/ and in my bio!
