CURRENT MISSION

To take the road least traveled by...

ABOUT ME

If there's the option, I'll always go back a different way from the way I came (which often results in me getting horribly lost but hey, that's all part of the fun).
Adventurous, friendly and always interested in new cultures and people from all over - I love to learn and try new things every day

PHILOSOPHY

If in doubt, do something fun.

Teach, Learn, Share

I guess everyone you meet you learn from in some way.
I'm more than happy to share what I know if people are interested, but I'm far from being an expert on any topic.
I love to hear others opinions and discuss different views.
I'm trying to learn poi, so if anyone is good at this I'd be stoked, also how to make jewellery, other languages... always keen to learn.
