"Do something that’s a little uncomfortable and trust your gut." Wise words from my guest today, Katherine Leamy. Katherine is The 5 Kilo Traveller. Her mission is to help people travel lighter, stop struggling with heavy and overpacked luggage, and enjoy the liberating freedom of carry-on travel. Her personal travelling light journey started on her solo trip to Europe in 2017 which we talk about on this episode.
She realised she had to manage her own bag all by herself - and that is how the desire to travel lighter all began. The trip turned out to be life changing and living a lighter life has now become her philosophy. She loves sharing her passion for all things light and she's even written a travel memoir!
Her memoir, "Dare to Travel Solo: Exploring Croatia and Italy with a light carry-on bag a tone of determination" comes out March 2023! You can get it on Amazon as an e-book once it's released (more details in the episode).
