ABOUT ME

I am young at heart, always looking for adventure and ways to grow. I was raised in multicultural London and have spent more than 9 years travelling/living in other countries. I have lived in Bangkok, Chaing Mai, Hong Kong, Sao Paulo, Belo Horizonte and Rio de Janeiro.

PHILOSOPHY

“We but mirror the world. All the tendencies present in the outer world are to be found in the world of our body. If we could change ourselves, the tendencies in the world would also change. As a man changes his own nature, so does the attitude of the world change towards him. This is the divine mystery supreme. A wonderful thing it is and the source of our happiness. We need not wait to see what others do.” Mahatma Gandhi

“Always treat people the way you wish to be treated.”
Joseph Belucky
