About Michele

Michele Legge and her husband Ron are a West Australian couple in their 50s who decided not to wait until they retired to  have a big travel adventure.

They spent 3 years motorbiking couch surfing house sitting and slow travelling around Europe.

I dont feel guilty just sitting and drinking coffee and doing whatever!

When coming home...

  • Emotions Michele faced - Suffered with the idea of consumerism as she only travelled with 9kg. Realised she didn't need all this 'stuff.'
  • What had changed - Not much really Michele realised how important her female friendships were. 
  • 3 Lessons learned from travel and reverse culture shock
  1. Don't spent your life asking 'what if.'
  2. Life is short so don't take your health for granted.
  3. No adventure is better than any other.
  • Advise to herself for returning home - Things will sort themselves out. Tears won't change anything.
You cant get time back and its important to take time to do the things you really like doing.
