CURRENT MISSION

To have fun, meet great people, learn as much as I can, and visit every continent before I'm 25

ABOUT ME

Hi I'm Hannah, Australian, 23 years old, and I've taken a year off university (studying to be a teacher) to lead a volunteer program in Kenya and then travel around as much as my funds will let me!

I'm a vegetarian, human rights/left wing activist, I like to op-shop, make/peruse art, I love music, and travelling is my favourite thing to do.

PHILOSOPHY

People are great, travel is the best education out there, and life is to be enjoyed!

I hope to leave the world a little better than when I came into it, and have the best time I possibly can along the way :)
