a travelling proust
hello, salut, konnichiwa
My name is Keira Proust. I'm a reporter and am currently spending 12 months travelling abroad. My partner and I are trying to reduce our carbon footprint as we travel through Southeast Asia toward Europe, so we are attempting to fly as little as possible.​ I am taking a career break from my job as a journalist at the ABC, Australia's national broadcaster, for this adventure and thought I would share some of my experiences and photography along the way.​
a bit more about me
I grew up backpacking through Southeast Asia with my family and feel incredibly fortunate to continue travelling to these wonderful countries and more as an adult. At age 15, I spent nearly six months on exchange in France, igniting a lasting love for the language, cheese, wine, and good conversations.
My partner and I have spent the past four years saving for this epic trip and are beyond excited that it's finally paying off. ​We're currently in Malaysia after making our way (on land and boat) from Bali through Java and Sumatra. I hope my travel writings and photos can bring you some joy, inspiration or peace of mind (for my loved ones back home).

Let the adventures begin!
