About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to explore the world and meet new people!

ABOUT ME

I've recently quit my job in London to go travelling for a year :) I started in Japan where I taught for three months, I then went onto Vietnam, Cambodia, Thailand, India, and Laos- next Australia and New Zealand! Phew, I hope so anyway- maaaybe it'll take longer than a year!I'm now travelling through Asia and coming back to Japan in May for another 3 months teaching.....:)

I really want to get to some parts of Australia and find somewhere I'd love to spend my 9 months+ of travel visa ....can you help me decide where to go??

PHILOSOPHY

Try to be brave, do something that scares you a bit!
