Meet Tahlia, a writer for The Modern Muse Magazine. Hailing from Brisbane and based in Newcastle, she dipped her toes in a bunch of industries before realising in epiphany-esque fashion that telling stories is at the heart of her being.

Meet Steph, The Modern Muse’s resident travel agent, who found her heart beats faster for travel than for textbooks. Spending a decade as a flight attendant, time living overseas and then as a travel consultant, her journey is a tale of passports, plane tickets, and wanderlust (complete with more than her fair share of delays). Despite travelling to over 50 countries, Steph’s bucket list still stretches longer than an international flight. She hopes to inspire your future travels and guide you toward slightly fewer mishaps than she’s encountered. Get ready to catch the travel bug.
