Philosophy: "I've never seen a wild thing sorry for itself" D.H. Lawrence

Aim: To always be wild, keep my head up and my heart open and to never stop learning.

My last big trip was in 2015 and I spent the year in South America, after this I moved to Brighton a lovely haven by the sea in the UK. I work in a creative college doing empowerment work and pastoral support for young people and I really love it. I am hoping to study to become a humanistic counsellor to continue this work further. I really enjoy the study of how the brain works and why we feel the way we do.

I think I'm pretty easy going, although I relish in heated debates, life would be boring of we all thought the same wouldn't it? I love to cook and to clean (I promise that's actually true!) I love nattering away to new people and practicing my language skills, just learning something new from everyone I meet whether it be the perfect time to boil an egg, (please tell me!) or your views on existentialism, whatever it may be I'm a sponge let me soak you up! (Hmm that sounds strange!)

Passionate about global issues especially the rights of education for women and girls worldwide, my dogs and am always most at home with the sound of the ocean.

I will be in Southern India from 23rd March - 20th April and want to try and meet as many interesting people as possible.
