Julia Albu

Julia Albu is an adventurer with a difference – she’s an octogenarian. At an age when most people are happy to put up their feet, Julia drove south to north across Africa in her trusty Toyota Conquest she named Tracy.

Before this madcap adventure, Julia was involved in marketing and public relations.
