About me

Welcome to A City Girl Outside blog! My names Rachael, a girl from London who left the UK in 2016 in pursuit of adventure. I now call British Columbia, Canada home. Having left my comfort zone I've learned to ski, snowmobile, fish, and climb mountains. In the past 4 years I've spent a year working for Walt Disney World, became a Canadian permanent resident and moved to Australia. Thanks for reading!

2020 took away many things for me as it did for many. But I gained much more. I made new forever friends, walked back into a stable job during a period when jobs are hard to come by and learned to appreciate the things in life I already have instead of focusing on things I don’t have. 

I’m lucky to live somewhere beautiful that makes getting outside so easy. I’m thankful for my health and my families health, and thankful to have the best husband ever who supports me in everything I do. Even when I tell him I’m going traveling for a year.

I may not have spent my birthday swimming in the Great Barrier Reef like I planned but we already have many adventures planned for 2021 that don’t involve leaving the country - so here’s hoping the new year is better for everyone! Happy New Year! 🥂 🍾
