About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Learn to live slowly, face my fears and anxieties, and always, always open myself to connect with others.

ABOUT ME

She's bubbly, passionate and compassionate. She wants to travel so that she can see the world the way you do. She's also pretty independent, and doesn't need much to get her by.
Currently living in Mallorca, Spain, where she will be teaching English in a local Primary School, learning about sustainability and permaculture, and trying to get as involved in Spanish life as possible.

Cycling home, into the sunrise, paint-covered and exhilarated after a day and night of Distortion, Copenhagen.
