Nina Boons is a Health Coach, Mum of two, globetrotting German and business owner. In this episode of The Enterprising Expat we take it back to when people planned their trips with The Lonely Planet. We take a leap to Australia then to The Emirates, pause in London and make a few other detours along the way.
