CURRENT MISSION

To find new people in my home town!

ABOUT ME

I obviously love to travel and I truly believe its the people you meet that tend to make the place, and the experience!
I am a positive person who likes to challenge my comfort zone, in honesty i can be incredibly self sufficient, enjoying both my own company and picking people up on the way ^^. I tend to explore a new place through walking and avoiding public transport, getting lost with a map tends to help!

I am arty and have an interest in all forms of creativity, though I love to talk about/listen to academic subjects as well. Love animals and I am a non-judging vegetarian.

PHILOSOPHY

life begins today.
better to trust and get hurt than never trust anyone. I have lots of tales of tragedy but equally those of hope.
I ask lots of questions about culture, life and social issues. less about facts and history. prefer to experience the local hang outs and miss tourist tick boxes.

"We are in such a hurry to grow up, and then we long for our lost childhood. We make ourselves ill earning money, then spend all our money getting well again. We think so much about the future that we neglect the present, and thus experience neither the present nor the future. We live as if we were never going to die, and die as if we had never lived" - dunno who haha, i should know but i don't. Paulo Coelho quoting someone else (Jaime Cohen - thanks!) :)

Teach, Learn, Share

Experienced people, I think you can learn something from anyone.

I can teach origami, vegetarian cooking, English, and laziness
