"When I was like 12, we'd be travelling around on the buses or the trains and I'd be looking but I'm not really paying attention to everything and taking it all in...
Now I'm a bit older and i just really wanted to see it on my own and see how it would all pan out."
Episode #30 of The Hope Initiative with Alex Dao
Alex is a former team mate from Whitehorse United, the soccer club I've been at since I was 9, and I played with Alex until we were about 12/13, easily half our life ago...
It had been well over a decade since I'd last seen and properly spoken to him when we met up for this conversation.
In it we discuss his love for solo travelling, what he has learnt by travelling the world, overcoming multiple injuries including most recently an ACL injury, and what he he hopes to achieve in the rest of his life.
It was great catching up with Alex, thanks again to him.
All the best!
