So over the years I have travelled under many banners:
party traveller, study traveller, lob on your friends doorstep in another country traveller, teacher in charge traveller, romantic couple traveller to our current destination family friendly 'kids under 13 eat, stay and play for free traveller.

Hi, I'm Tracey and I'm a Secondary teacher, my partner Jason work in a local vineyard (no he can't get wine for free?!!) and we have a three year old son Jordan

My real travelling started out with the end of Uni trip to Bali in 1995. From that point I fell in love with Indonesia and travelling.
There were many trips to Surfers Paradise in Queensland in 1996, 1997, 1999 and 2001.
I visited a friend in Japan in 1997 and did the part local, part tourist thing.
My trips to Indonesia have included studying in Java in 1998, two school tours in 1999 (Bali and Lombok) and 2001(Bali and Java) and returning to study, in Java, with friends in 2001.
A group of teachers got together in 1999 and visited L.A., New York and San Fransisco.
I lobbed on another friend's doorstep in 2000 while they were spending a year's exchange in New Zealand.
And managed to get on the Yr 10 Central Australia tour in 2001.

We only managed one big holiday together before the pitter patter of little feet came along about three years too early.
In 2001 we headed to Surfers, visit number 10 or something for me and the first time out of Victoria for Jase.
While our son Jordan was still tiny we visited:
The Sunshine Coast in 2002.
Hamilton Island & Airlie Beach 2003
Sydney 2004
Cairns & Port Douglas 2005

And then finally dared to leave the country with him to Bali 2005.
