About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I'm a native English teacher, and I'm trying to travel/work everywhere I possibly can. I'm slowly but surely making my way to Japan hopefully.

ABOUT ME

Im an extrovert no doubt. I love to have fun and see new things. I work hard during the day, but do whatever I feel like at night. I love music and studied music/percussion. I also taught drums part-time and played in a pretty successful band when I was younger. These days I read a lot and like to have drinks and have good conversation. I'm very liberal and extremely hassle free. I'm neat and organised but not opposed to losing control when I feel I deserve it.ha!

PHILOSOPHY

Don't harm others
