🇵🇬🥾 KOKODA — I DID IT! 💪❤️
What an experience! One I’ll never forget.
The Kokoda Track pushed me physically and emotionally further than I ever expected. There were moments when my body wanted to give up, the hills felt endless, and I had to dig deep mentally to keep putting one foot in front of the other.
But that’s what made reaching the finish line so special. This journey was about so much more than walking through the jungle. It was about resilience, mental strength and realising how far I’ve come.
Meeting the amazing locals in the small villages was a real highlight. Their warmth, kindness and smiles were unforgettable. ❤️
A HUGE THANK YOU to Alexander Louca for getting me on this trip, helping me train and prepare, and giving me the time to unwind, switch off and talk. Your support and the time you’ve invested in me mean more than you know. I’m incredibly grateful! 🙏
A massive thank you to all my fellow trekkers for sharing this incredible journey with me. The laughs, the tough moments, the encouragement and the friendships made along the way helped make this experience so special. We got through it together! 💪❤️
Thank you to Australian Kokoda Tours and Kokoda Centurions for organising such an incredible experience, and to Breakthrough Mental Health Foundation and The Man Cave for joining us and the amazing work you do.
To everyone who donated, shared my posts and supported me along the way — THANK YOU! ❤️ Every bit of support means so much and helps us raise money for such an important cause.
This year has been about changing my life — losing 30kg, staying off the alcohol and becoming a healthier, fitter version of myself for me and my family.
Kokoda is finished, but the journey doesn’t stop here! The battle to stay healthy, fit and mentally strong continues, and so does the mission to raise money and awareness for mental health.
🔥 ON TO THE NEXT CHALLENGE!
