“Life is not about what you own, life is about what you do.”

This is the simple message that I want to share with the world. I learnt this truth as I travelled ‘Around the World in 80 Handbags’ and photographed the belongings that people carry with them through India, Singapore, Australia, New Zealand, Los Angeles and New York.

My book celebrates the glorious discoveries that travelling outside of your comfort zone can provide.

“Educational, insightful and fun. We’ve already re-booked Will for next year!”
Brynley Elias, Ferndown Upper School, Bournemouth

“It’s given me the confidence to just go out there and do it.”
Anna Chamberlain, 17, St. Mary’s School Shaftesbury

My talk picks up on the extreme activities (bungy jumping and sky diving etc…) that I did before I went travelling and then moves on to the lessons that I learnt from asking random strangers about the contents of their handbags.

“We didn’t really know what to expect from Will’s handbag findings and were delighted with what we found. Makes me wish I was heading off on my own gap year like many of our pupils will be. Will’s talk was tremendously engaging, humorous and thought provoking.”
John Turner, Head of 6th Form, King Edwards School, Bath

Now is your opportunity to book Will Baxter’s “Around the World in 80 Handbags” talk that will enlighten, engage and positively charge your pupils. Ideal for short assemblies and 45-60 minute lesson.
