About the blogger Keri Hedrick

Introducing Keri Hedrick; freelance travel writer, podcaster and mother of three based in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates

Keri Hedrick - Family Travel Writer Profile

In a prior life I worked as a Chartered Accountant in Melbourne, Australia then London, UK but I have put my full-time career on hold to focus on my young children, writing, share trading, joining countless committees and in my remaining time learning more about the world through the friends I meet and of course, my travels.

From street stalls in Asia to beer cafes in Belgium I regularly travelled for over 10 years prior to having my first child in 2010. I assumed from this point onward my travel days would be numbered; but as my daughter’s passport is testament to, she had already visited five continents and clocked up 100,000 air miles with us by the tender age of three.

With three children now in tow, my travel experiences have certainly changed – and our combined air miles sit well over 1,000,000! – but our travels are still rewarding.

The Globetrotters Blog draws on my own travel experiences and the advice I have gathered from fellow travelling parents, as well as what I have learnt about different cultures and how the expatriate life affects parenting.
