ABOUT ME

I started travelling in 2010. The most interesting part of my journey has been the people I have met. So far I have visited Egypt, Uganda, China, Japan, Vietnam (on a motorbike!), Cambodia, Lao, Thailand, Indonesia, Malaysia, Australia and NewZealand , Chile and Argentina. My previous short visits have been to Spain, Greece, Italy, France, Canada, Gibraltar, most or Europe basically -- oh and Russia (amazing place)

Favourite City probably Rome, loved the Northern lakes of Italy.

Incredible places I would love to visit again: Luxor temples, Angkor.

Hope to visit" South America and India (may be next year!)

Would like to find interesting travel companions to experience the world with.

I love art, am a Buddhist.

PHILOSOPHY

My latest discovery: to seek is to miss what is - Osho
