About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Explore and give and get as much as I can from this world.

ABOUT ME

I'm enjoying life and not taking it too seriously. I'll try almost anything once and then probably do it again. Any adventure is something I am interested in. I love being active and out-of-doors. I enjoy meeting people and learning from them.

PHILOSOPHY

love, wander, learn, grow, give.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Waking up on a terrace, surrounded by sleeping strangers, to the early morning Call to Prayer in Fes, Morocco is one of my favourite and most surreal memories.

Backpacking in the Canadian Rocky Mountains in terrential downpour with a stove that wouldn't light and a tent without tent pegs was an adventure I will never forget.
