Oliver’s Twist On Travel

Australian

About Me:

I’ve been a travel blogger for nearly five years now and it’s been one of the most amazing experiences of my life. Based in Sydney, I’ve done most of my travels in Australia; but there is still so much more to visit!

Before my life as a travel blogger, I used to work in the financial industry behind a computer all day and I always felt like I was in a dead end job. While I still sit behind a computer retelling my travel stories, travelling the world has given me a new perspective and has opened my eyes to all the different cultures and people that populate this earth.

As a budget traveller I like sharing my tips and recommendations for exploring new destinations without spending a lot of money. As you read my travel blog I hope that you will be inspired to get out and explore your surroundings and create adventure wherever you go.

Its plethora of awesome qualities are mostly due to its location on the coast where it lies north of Pisco and Nazca and west of Huancayo.
