Hello, i’m Kate, the creator of NOT A TOURIST. Thanks for visiting!
Born in Melbourne, Australia, I had never travelled overseas until I was 21. First stop was NYC: a mind blowing experience that inspired future trips in the US, Canada, ASIA, Europe and parts of Australia. I believe the best way to learn from other cultures is by visiting and interacting with them and realising we are usually more similar than our differences.
I created NOT A TOURIST as I continued to travel in my 30’s. Some of the best times occurred when I made up my own mind on choosing activities and deciding when to take time out. I loved wandering through cities and spending endless hours stumbling upon neighborhoods, coffee shops and incredible sights.
Fun facts:
Coffee lover and a HSP 😊
