Meet Rebekah Ray

Partnerships Administration Assistant

I'm half Australian, half New Zealand with a Scottish and Finnish background, born and raised in western Sydney. After finishing school and working for a few years, I felt an immense desire to travel the world. I studied TESOL and went to Vietnam and then China to teach English. Back in Australia, I worked full time coordinating bush regeneration projects, and then studied Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) at Western Sydney University and Yoga Teaching through Zen Ki Yoga. As well as working at World Nomads, I am part-time as a TCM Practitioner and yoga teacher.

I joined World Nomads at the end of 2019, and I support the Partnerships Affiliate Team. I'm excited at the possibilities available at a dynamic, fast-paced, and innovative community that support ethical travel, work/life balance, and innovative thinking.

I love travel because of the effect that ‘true’ travel has on people. Travel helps to open the mind, heart, and understanding of the world. I treasure the opportunities that I have had to work, study, and travel overseas. I proactively encourage people to make their own memories overseas and grow as individuals.
