Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Meet other travellers and travel more myself.
ABOUT ME
I am a mother of ason of 21years who is away at uni. I work with people who have mental health issues on an organic garden site in the heart of Oxford. I love the outdoors but now find the cold in England more difficult! I have just been to New Zealand and Australia for 6 weeks which was wonderful and I found it difficult settling back into routine but I'm ok now!
I am a buddhist and practise as a member of SGI-UK, we chant and meet for inspiration. Buddhism in a nutshell has made me more confident and happy!
PHILOSOPHY
Humanistic I suppose....respecting people and their beliefs.....Buddhist philosophy of overcoming obstacles and finding the opportunity in all situations. Challenging myself to overcome my fears and live my dreams!
