Dawne Archer

I live a full and active life, indulging my curious nature through travel by any means possible. Backpacking, road trips, cruising, sailing, whatever opportunity comes my way.
Brave or foolhardy? That is the question I asked myself when I stubbornly pursued my goal of trekking in the Sahara Desert to raise funds for Thrombosis UK.
Suffering blood clots in my leg and lung at the age of 26, my quest is to raise awareness of thrombosis, donating profits from sales of Trekker Girl Morocco Bound to the charity.
As a radio presenter, I interview people from all walks of life. Often, I become the interviewee, talking about my brush with death and how life is still an adventure, despite my diagnosis of an inherited clotting disorder.
I started writing to describe the ups and downs of my unforgettable desert trek. Reliving my travel experiences encourages me to write on.
