One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I hitchhiked from Tokyo to Hiroshima last summer! It was an unforgettable experience and I met so many kind and interesting people during the journey.

Teach, Learn, Share

I would describe myself as an open person. I enjoy hearing other peoples' stories and experiences as well as having my own thoughts and opinions contested. I strive when out of my comfort zone, and I am keen to learn all that there is to be learned.
