Around: She Gets
Evie Farrell, blogger, author, travel journalist and mum to Emmie BY KATJA GASKELL
If you’ve ever considered handing in your notice, buying a one-way plane ticket, and saying goodbye to routine and hello to adventure then you’ll want to read this. Evie Farrell and her daughter Emmie are two adventurous souls who have seen more of the world than most of us could hope to experience in a lifetime, with a particular affection for Asia. The duo have eaten dumplings in China, skied the powder fields in Japan, explored the highlands and jungles of Malaysia, and even lived in Vietnam for a while. They spent three years on the road seeing the world, sharing experiences, and making memories to last several lifetimes. And they would have kept going if the pandemic hadn't forced them to return to their native Australia. In 2019 Evie published her memoir about her travels with her daughter. Backyard to Backpack: A solo mum, a six year old and a life changing adventure, was published by Murdoch Books and has proven to be hugely inspirational to all families that love to travel. We've followed Evie and Emmie's travels for a long time on their wonderful Instagram page where she has over 120K followers, and are thrilled to be sharing their travels here with you.
