ABOUT ME

Tall, Dark hair, Medium Build. Mid length hair. Cool Glasses. I have an Identical twin who currently is studying law in Glasgow. I lve to travel and experience new cultures. I like to raise awareness on global poverty and other issies affecting our world and the people who live in it. especially those who are on the receiving end of disasters, bad leadership and harsh environments.

PHILOSOPHY

we have all been given the gift of our lives to make the world a better place - Jane Goodall - activist and primatologist.

Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts. Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the earth all one’s lifetime. —Mark Twain, 1857

Teach, Learn, Share

If you are concerned about the quality of the water you are drinking.. drop in one drop of bleach per 1 litre of water.. leave it to sit for an hour or more then leave you're worries behind!
