Speaker Writer Adventurer
Terra is one of Australia’s most accomplished adventurers. Now in their 50s they have lived more in one life than most can even begin to imagine.
Their stories of true grit and survival will have you on the edge of your seat. Their adventures alone into the wild and around the world will inspire you to explore more.
Terra is on the autism spectrum, living with PTSD and depression and identifies as non-binary. Many have been empowered, had their lives transformed and reaffirmed through Terra’s journey, bravery and strength.
