About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Make it home alive

ABOUT ME

I recently Qualified as a legal aid solicitor doing Child Law and Criminal work.
I found the work totally depressing and really stressful so I decided to pack my bag again.

I enjoy lots of things however am not overly a beach person as I am not particularly sporty or skilled in activities that require any particular level of co-ordination.

I enjoy having chilled out conversations on different topics, and whinging about England!

PHILOSOPHY

Never try, never know

HAD I the heavens' embroidered cloths,
Enwrought with the golden and silver light,
The blue and the dim and the dark cloths
Of night and light and half-light,
I would spread the cloths under your feet
But I, being poor, have only my dreams;
I have spread my dreams beneath your feet;
Tread softly because you tread on my dreams...

And I'll try to tread softly on other people's dreams.
