ABOUT ME

I'm a 23 year old student from Australia. I've spent the last year in Mexico at the University of Guadalajara. I'm currently considering the feasibility of spending the rest of my life living in different cities/towns for a year each. It's just enough time to get to know a place well, but not so much that you start to take time for granted. We'll see how I go ...

I want to visit just about every country in the world. I still haven't seen the Australian Outback, though, so that should probably be my next trip. I love being in the mountains and walking in the forest, having picnics, cooking, reading a book in a park (when I'm not too lazy to leave the house) and spending long afternoons with good friends or family.

PHILOSOPHY

Be vegetarian!
Conviértete en vegetariano
