"When I took away the pressure of what I thought an adventure should be, I was constantly amazed by the beauty of the landscape and the rich history and community woven into every step of the trail." @brooke_nolan discovers the rewards of taking it easy. https://t.co/35gWp1KVzR

#Womenshistorymonth: Elizabeth passed the Society of Apothecaries exams in 1865. Then, they were closed to women-to stop others following her lead.

Not to be deterred, in 1871, Elizabeth opened a hospital exclusively staffed by women:

"Aside from the skiing—which we did for around 8 hours most days, covering anything from 7km to 23km—the routine was arduous yet beautifully simplistic: Ski, set up camp, eat, sleep, stay warm, repeat. ‘Real life’ felt a million miles away." @brooke_nolan https://t.co/Xv3oE5SiQx

Australian permanent resident, dealing with my fourth #cancelledflight. Sign the petition to scrap #flightcaps … https://t.co/jzN2i4Ne1W via @ChangeAUS

[Brooke Nolan @brooke_nolan]

Joining the #flightcaps coversation after 3 cancellations from @cathaypacific. If business class flights are the only ones being accepted, can we not just tell the truth & give prices? At least then we can make decisions on real information. Even if it means spending life savings

[Brooke Nolan @brooke_nolan]

@Ryanair Okay, thanks

[Brooke Nolan @brooke_nolan]

@Ryanair hi, my mum has broken her leg and needs assistance on her flight on Friday. No luck with email or chat, can you help?!

[Brooke Nolan @brooke_nolan]

@James_J_Harding @lykapetfood Hi James, I'd love to chat. I'm a journalist and copywriter (lots of blog writing experience) and have actually interviewed Dr Matthew Muir for an article before: https://t.co/VldkeqtJ7F

I wrote this earlier this year, and now seems like a good time to reshare...

Just how hard is it to give up flying? @brooke_nolan talks to a few people who have done just that. https://t.co/kSwvTJcol0

@noahmichelson Hi Noah, what about a piece about living between three countries during Covoid-19? Australia (love interest), UK (family), Switzerland (work). I was travelling and 100% off grid when this all happened and have had to make hard choices about which country to go 'home' to.

[Brooke Nolan @brooke_nolan]

I swear...half the time the views on the Drakensburg Grand Traverse barely looked real. How could a place so untouched still exist? Although I may have had to leave the hike early due to injury I will be forever grateful for the experience. And the views… https://t.co/Yo61CySm5j

[Brooke Nolan @brooke_nolan]

Well, our plan to complete the Drakensburg Grand Traverse might not have worked out thanks to illness and injury. But on the plus side, I couldn't think of anyone better to have hatched an escape plan with than @endless.traveller.
