About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To go on adventures and to see as much as possible!

ABOUT ME

Hello! I'm a sociable student from England who likes to find any chance to get away and see more of the world!
I like crafts, arts (all kinds!), qwirky things, nature, beautiful scenery, vibrant cities, having spontaneous adventures, cooking (vegetarian and attempting to be vegan, mostly failing!), the occasional booze up, but (but not the type of person to get wrecked every night and come home with stolen traffic signs and trash your house =])
Very easy going and relaxed, happy to take things in my stride and go with the flow.

PHILOSOPHY

Lifes too short so enjoy it!
