I'm taking up the Skype Nomad challenge to travel non-stop around the globe. Over 33 days I'll be using as many different forms of transport possible for a girl - from jumbo jets to dog sleds, canoes to camels, sky diving to revolving restaurants... Definitely not what I though I'd be doing 6 months ago.

So watch this space for my escapades, encounters, films, pics, highs and lows from my adventures in China, Alaska, Australia, USA, Europe and the UK. I'll be sending it all for free using the gadgets Skype has given me.

It's all for a good cause - the charity Motivation which helps provide ways for disabled kids to get around.

The trip. A message from Skype

Take one fabulously confident Australian girl, add a hectic itinerary, a whole range of different gadgets that mean you can use Skype on the move and there you have it - the Skype Nomad.

We want to show that Skype is now mobile - that’s why Rebecca is touring the world for us non-stop. You can instant message and talk to her using Skype (if she’s available) to keep her company while she’s on the road. The Skype Nomad world tour is pretty much the world’s longest advert, thanks to the constant stream of images and videos uploaded from around the globe to the Nomad blog. Keep a track of what’s Rebecca’s up to and how she’s using Skype away from a computer. Follow the Nomad.
