I'm an easy going person who loves to travel and explore new places and meet new people. I love the thrill of trying new things and learning new skills and I think the best way to do that is to be open to new people and experiences. I love being outdoors and feel so grateful for the beauty of the natural world. I also love music and dance and currently and trying to learn salsa and bachata - please join me! I'm currently a doctor working in Birmingham in the UK and trying to travel as much as I can.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've been so lucky to have had loads of amazing experiences! Swam in a waterfall in Vietnam and a lake fed by a glacier in the Yukon, spent a night in Budapest train station with no money and no phone but had the best time playing chatting with some lovely old guys. Danced at Sadlers Wells theatre in london. Horse riding through the desert in front of the pyramids in Giza!
