Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Exploring the World until I need to get another job - looking to get off the tourist trail
ABOUT ME
Intrepid traveller, I started travelling around the World in Santiago, Chile in November 2011, travelling north through South and Central America and a quick jaunt in the US. I then flew from New York to London for the Olympics in July 2012 and I have now travelled through most of Western Europe, then the East, Turkey, some of the Middle East and now heading to India, Nepal and probably back to the Mediterranean for another European summer in 2013
PHILOSOPHY
Always have fun!
Do what ever makes YOU happy!
Also loving the lyrics to Asaf Avidan's Reckoning Song
"One day baby, we'll be old
Oh baby, we'll be old
And think of all the stories that we could have told"

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
Only surfing at the moment, but will certainly be hosting when I finally settle down somewhere
