WITH VIDEOShe was young and loved to travel, her next trip became her dream destination: New Zealand. Until that dream shattered after British Bethany went under the knife when it turned out that she had a cholesteatoma, a form of chronic middle ear infection. “I spent two months traveling on boats and trains to travel from England to New Zealand after being told I could never fly again.”

The doctors never allowed her to fly again after several operations. Yet that did not stop the British from getting to New Zealand one way or another. She embarked on a months-long journey by boat and train to get to New Zealand. She shares the adventure on her TikTok account. “This trip is an experience that I will cherish for the rest of my life,” she says in one of her videos. “It has shaped who I am, how I love my life and has taught me so much that I can’t wait to share.”
In her videos she also talks about the ups and downs she faced during the trip, but that she thought it was a wonderful way to discover the world. “It was really not easy at times, it was expensive, it was stressful, but I am so happy that I took the leap and did not let my condition hold me back.”
