6. Katy Johnson

Katy Johnson is a model, actress, travel journalist and the founder of her non-profit organisation, One Model Mission. She is visiting every country in the world - that's 196 countries - interviewing women of all cultures and redefining the perception of true beauty. Her aim is to highlight the misconceptions of beauty around the world and create a documentary series highlighting the struggles of being a woman in different societies. She is currently on country number 72 and has already interviewed 57 incredible women. Katy struggled with depression and anorexia in her teenage years and body image, particularly in the entertainment industry in Hollywood, is still something she battles with. But these challenges have been the fuel to her fire for her strive for women's empowerment and equality. Through her project, One Model Mission, she hopes to combine her passion for travel with her purpose to find true beauty in women around the world and, trust me, she has collected some brilliant stories along the way.In our conversation we chat getting locked in a mosque in Bosnia, being rescued after her car broke down by a family in Tbilisi and getting picked up while hitchhiking by the winner of The Voice in Kazakhstan - plus loads more. Katy's Instagram: @iamkatyjohnson and @onemodelmissionKaty's website: https://www.onemodelmission.comOur Instagram: @StorytimeForTravellersDo you love to travel?
