About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Figure out life while sipping Sangria

ABOUT ME

Grew up in New Zealand, didn't really start travelling until my early 20's and haven't stopped since! Lived for time in Australia, US, Austria, and recently parked up in Barcelona for the past couple of years. I was working up until a month ago, and am now on fulltime vacation :)

Interests

I love moving around the place, stopping and enjoying different places/cultures and meeting the people that come with it!

I've always been active and especially love both the mountains for snowboarding and the beach for surfing, and I have been very lucky to grow up in a country where we have both so close to each other.

When I am travelling I am equally happy to spend the nights relaxing with a book, or out socialising with new friends and strangers!
