CURRENT MISSION

Learning Russian!

ABOUT ME

I've been fortunate enough to have had many experiences travelling and living abroad which have inspired me to pursue a life of travel, learning languages and living in foreign contexts.

I've volunteered in Santiago de Chile, studied in Lyon, worked in Munich and am now working in Switzerland!

PHILOSOPHY

"Live while you are alive
Learn the ways of silence and wisdom
learn to act, learn a new speech
learn to be what you are in the seed of your spirit
learn to free yourself from all things that have moulded you and which limit your secret and undiscovered road"
- Ben Okri 'To an English Friend in Africa'

Une aventure extraordinaire que j'ai vécue

Left my home, moved to the other side of the world, only to find new friends, new family and a new home.

Hiked up Huyana Picchu mountain at Machu Picchu. Visited the salt flats in Uyuni - seeing such beauty made me really appreciate the wonders of the world
