CURRENT MISSION

To travel around SE Asia before being tied down to a career in London!

ABOUT ME

I'm 24 years old, currently on a gap year after studying Chemistry at the University of Nottingham (England). I've lived in the UK, USA and Australia and have grown to appreciate the value of travelling and meeting new people.
I'm laid back, relaxed and easy going (so much so that apparently I just had to use three words to convey exactly the same thing!)
I'm looking to meet friends, visit new countries and experience foreign cultures before starting a career in London in the Summer.

PHILOSOPHY

Chill... Life is going to happen no matter how you stress about it.

Interests

I love to meet new people and travel. I want to learn about myself by throwing myself into foreign countries and cultures. I play Ultimate (frisbee) and enjoy running. I enjoy relaxing with friends, chatting over a beer or two.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I travelled to Swaziland to volunteer in schools for AIDs orphans when I was 17. I think this really kicked off my love of travelling when I realised just how much I could learn by getting out and seeing the world.
When on my International Study Year in Australia, I spent Christmas and New Years on a remote island with no running water, power or infrastructure in the Great Barrier Reef (Lady Musgrave Island)
