Tashi Wheeler – girl on the move
I=Inteeviewer, T= Tashi
I - Now, travelling, Erm… when did you start travelling?
T – When I was eight months old.
I – And where did you go?
T – Erm I think we did a lot of South… yeah we did a lot of South East Asia when I was
younger. And Galapagos Island, Phillippines, and stuff like that.
I – And your first memories of travelling?
T - … don’t remember
I – What are your first memories of travelling?
T – Erm…airports. Erm…what else? Beaches. It was a lot in Asia at the time, so it was
always hot. Big fruit drinks, and … I don’t know, lots of bus rides.
I – Was there a time at which you sort of felt ‘Yeah, I quite enjoy this travelling’, or was
it…? It sounds almost a bit of a chore, the way you describe it at the moment.
T – No, it was never a chore, I always really enjoyed it. I think I was quite comfortable.
Mum used to say that when I was two years old she just put me down and I just ran off.
And she wouldn’t see me, and then someone would pick me and up bring me back. I was
quite happy fitting in everywhere.
