ABOUT CHARGE THE GLOBE

Hi! I’m Jenny a 50 something Australian woman who is pretty squidgy round the edges, has untameable unfashionably frizzy hair, has travelled to 104 countries over 30 years and is ALWAYS in comfortable shoes.


I travel mostly solo and love to share my experiences and adventures with you all.

It’s real travel.
