About Me

CURRENT MISSION

ensuring the world is safe...

ABOUT ME

Love to travel - love the freedom; the appreciation for the simplest things inc. friends and family. The cultures you experience, the people you meet, the art, architecture and fashion you see. I love how you subconsciously incorporate all these things into your life and pass it on to the next person that you meet.

I endeavour to catch favourite moments in life on camera and usually have one close by.

I'm studying journalism and public relations and really enjoy this avenue of work-life.

I'm Friendly, sarcastic, upfront, respectful, loud and honest and too the point.

I am heading over the USA on an exchange program, which counts towards my degree here... After who knows? - I'll have a bag on my back and a world of options (pun intended)

PHILOSOPHY

If life throws a bad scenario at you, chances are it won't occur again. If you get through it, you've lived and learnt.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

travel the world at 19 solo
did Summer camp in the States
seen the Taj Mahal, Eiffel Tower, London Bridge, Leaning Tower, Acropolis, Empire State -- inspired by it all and would see them all again!!!

Teach, Learn, Share

the want to explore, at a roots level, local level. For example I took level one of Spanish because I hope to mix with the locals, if I were to venture to South America and truly integrate into their culture, rather hop on and off a tour bus. I'd love to teach people about how beautiful Australia is and share my culture (I'm not too bad at cookin' a Barbie either and quite happy to lead by example in eating a meat pie and having a beer) :)

Countries I’ve Visited

India, New Zealand, Thailand, United Kingdom, United States
