How I Became a Sri Lankan Beauty Queen

Hi, I’m Kelly.

In 2009 I left Canada to go on a Working Holiday Visa in New Zealand.

When I made the decision to travel, a lot of crazy and wonderful stuff happened.

I fell in love with an Englishman in a creepy historic prison, followed him back to Lancashire and built my dream career as a freelance writer

We created Global Goose to offer an insight into the lifestyle of travel and provide practical tips to help you on your journey.

Just out here living my best life. 😎🏖🌴☀️🌈

Hey! It's been ages since I updated Instagram! 💚

About a month ago I deleted the Instagram, Facebook and Twitter apps from my phone, because I realized I was spending too much time mindlessly scrolling through my social media feeds. 📱
I'm glad I did - I look at my phone a lot less now and I'm spending more time enjoying other stuff like reading, exercising, watching good shows and having conversations with friends. (And cat sitting! Swipe to see the beautiful @thediplocatz. 😍) .
I really don't miss the constant barrage of notifications. After all, I can still log in every now and then on my browser to get caught up. But, I really love that I don't feel as compelled anymore to check my phone constantly and I can be more present - in social situations and also when on my own. 🌼
So, you'll probably see fewer updates from me on here. I just downloaded Instagram to post this but I'll delete the app again later today.
So, let's hang out in real life so I can look you in the eye and really listen to you. 💚
🌷

Saying goodbye to Melbourne again. 🇦🇺❤️😢 It's always hard to leave somewhere that I love so much. But it also makes me feel so grateful that I have these places in the world that bring me such joy.
It's not just the city itself (even though it's an amazing city) - it's the people. Friendships where I feel loved and appreciated for who I am. Where we can pick up where we left off like no time has passed. I'm so lucky to have this, not just here but in so many places around the world. ❤️ Love you, see you again soon. 😃

You know you're in Melbourne when you're having ridiculously elaborate avocado on toast for brunch.

By the way, does my cappuccino foam look like a penis or is it just me? ☕🥑🍞🇦🇺

Running along a volcanic black sand beach while listening to epic 80s power ballads was a pretty badass way to start the day. 😎🎸 #running #motivation #travel #digitalnomad #travellife #runninginspiration #beach #volcanicsandbeach #lovina #lovinabali #lovinabeach #indonesia

We took a very long and windy road and now we are in the middle of nowhere in the mountains of Bali. I think I'm in love with this view. 😍🇮🇩🌴

I love it when we find a hidden gem. We had lunch at a local family-run restaurant a short walk from Ubud. It was totally worth going out of the way for. 🇮🇩 #Ubud #Bali #indonesia #travel #foodie #digitalnomad #digitalnomadlife #travelculture #foodlover #localfood #travelexplore #ricefield #localcuisine #localfoodie
