Her workplace is fully remote. There is no office.
So if one can work from a flat or a cafe, why not a train or an air BnB?
Carenza was hoping to meet up with university friends in Tbilisi, but was trying to limit her air travel.
So she would work from home while travelling all across Europe.
Her five week solo trip would take her along many railroads less traveled. Not to mention bus trips on winding roads through snowy mountains.
As when she went travelling alone to south east Asia, she gave us a copy of her itinerary. As before, we had no idea what we could do to help if anything went wrong.
Off she went.
To curb my fretting, Carenza rang regularly - 'All is well'.
However, she forgot I follow her on Instagram and posted an account of hitches and horrors, both major and minor.
My hair stood on end.
Even when she reached Tbilisi, their mountain walking was blocked by an avalanche. When she returned to the UK she travelled via Armenia, landing her only eight miles from the Iran border on the day when Israel launched an attack on Iran.
However, now she is back, returning on the day she promised, with all her fingers and toes still attached. And I am glad.
'Would you do it again,' I asked.
Not even the tiniest pause.
'Oh yes,' she said.
