I took the opportunity to go travelling as it was something I knew I wouldn't really get the chance to do again once I began my career as a qualified solicitor. I embarked on a worldwide adventure for around 4 months to Thailand, Kuala Lumpur, Singapore, Australia, New Zealand and Fiji. I learned valuable life skills, experienced a vast variety of cultures and independently explored each country.
