About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Travel the world
ABOUT ME
Travelling has changed my life. I left University thinking I would only travel for four months, return to England and settle down into a job. Now I want to explore the world, meet people from different culture and learn more about peoples different ways of life.
I would say I am very open minded, adventurous, sociable and am happy. Everyone comments on how I always have a grin on my face.
I use to live in England and went to University in London to study Sports Science. In my spare time I played hockey, did some climbing and worked as a lifeguard and swimming instructor. I also enjoy to fly planes, parachute, hike in the mountains, sail, ski and bungee jump. After I graduated and went backpacking in Thailand, Australia, New Zealand and Hong Kong for four months. Then worked back in England, worked in a USA summer camp then travelled America Untill I reached Whistler for a ski season.
PHILOSOPHY
Live your life with no regrets and don’t let anyone stop you from doing what you really want to do in life as long as it does not harm anyone. Be open minded, kind and caring for other people.

Music, Movies, and Books
I like most types of music and often listen to the mainstream stuff. Films I like the most are good comedies, thrillers, Disney but it will depend on what my mood is. My top films are Inception, Gone in 60 seconds, Bourne trilogy, Blood diamond and Back to the future. With books I am open to anything with a good story line.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
When I did the world’s highest bungee jump off the Macau tower (233m high). It is the most insane thing I have ever done.
Teach, Learn, Share
I’m sure I could show people how to swim, sail, surf, ski, play tennis, hockey, juggle and maybe a few card games (and drinking games if anyone is up for that).
