Good Morning All

Graphic designer trying to understand the cosmos and my place in it. Off on the biggest adventure, designing as I go. Here are my musings...

Is it just me? Different narratives from this journey. Here is one that has emerged as being more crucial to me than I could have anticipated.

When I started this part of my journey I was unsure but full of bits of ideas. You know the way. It becomes a bit of a blur thinking of the possibilities that lay before me because of the skill set I have. I’m a designer, a visual person but I am also a chatter box, blabber mouth and an all round know-it-all. In parallel to trying to be a graphic designer on the road I had high hopes of writing a…

I’ve been stumbling through life, winning, losing and learning for a number of years now. From these experiences I have gained untold wisdom and I have decided I’ll share some of it in the hope of benefitting others. New blog started at www.kaycochrane.com. It might be gratuitous and I will probably waffle but it might also help you when you’re like “ah shit, what now?” And I will try and be moderately funny because I know I get serious as fuck. #modernwisdom #knowyourself #figureitout

I left home a year ago today 😳👋🏼🤗🦄 It’s been more enlightening, more scary, more exciting and more spine-tingling than I could have ever imagined. Big leaps pay off and following dreams can become everyday life, I want to keep saying it because I know how much courage it takes to take the first step. I am about to love in a city I’ve dreamt about for years and the big Brucey bonus is I get to live near one of my besties for a bit. Home is never too far away in Australia and that I’m grateful for. Melbourne, I’m sure you are going to satisfy in a whole new way! Here’s to many more to come and here’s to this being {probably} the best anniversary I’ve had in years! Young, single and most certainly free 💃🏼🥂🎈💛 CHEERS! ********** This photo was taken in Sihanoukville, Cambodia. I’m covered in mozzie bites, probably a tad hungover in serious heat. @ took it and I swear no one can make me smile quite like she can. It is her birthday today - synchronicity I guess, joyeux anniversaire mon bel écureuil papillon 😘 bisous, bisous, bisous 🌹 (at Manly Beach, Sydney Australia)

Awesome stop motion!

So it is goodbye to beach bumming, island life, jungle trekking, waterfall climbing, street food guzzling, tuk tuk riding & getting lost in translation. And hiya to new challenges on a familiar yet alien continent. Australia I am coming for you, geeeze it. #selfie #andshesoff #livinginaustralia (at Phnom Penh International Airport, Plaza Premium Lounge)

And that's me off the island 😳🚤 the rain stopped all afternoon so easy crossing! Tucked up in a nice guesthouse then it's Phnom Penh tomorrow, arriving in Sydney Monday morning. My first steps on a new continent and the next chapter begins. ****gushy posts to follow**** #hasntsunkinyet #kohrongsamloem #Cambodia

Living free. My last night on the island and I'm mentally prepping for traffic, busy streets, wearing shoes. On to the next one 💃🏼🔮🌈⚡️🦄🤖 #handstands #yoga #beach (at Koh Rong Sanloem - កោះរុងសន្លឹម)

As I nurse my hangover today this oldie popped up. Birthday weekend maybe 2012, when zero fucks were given! I could do with some of that stamina today, 4 days partying on the island and I'm ruined! #happybirthdaytome #hinging #tinthepark

Biggie Smalls, Al Capone, his name is Bo Bo and he is Boss Man Baby in the village. Very rare to see him with anything on below the waist. He is 18 month old and the 4th youngest, our wee neebur. #bossmanbaby #gansterkids #Cambodia (at Koh Rong Sanloem - កោះរុងសន្លឹម)

On the island the chief rocks a towel 💃🏼 going to miss this girl 😘 #allchange #islandchief #nextchapter (at The Drift)

Sad faces as the English teacher says goodbye. There is a constant flux of people on the island, and in the village it is felt acutely. #lowseason #islandlife #bonvoyage (at Koh Rong Sanloem - កោះរុងសន្លឹម)
