ABOUT ME

I left England in June 2007, after finishing university. My friend asked me if I wanted to go to Thailand for two months and then teach in China for a year. I'd never left Europe, so jumped at the chance. It turned into five months in South East Asia, over two years in China and the surrounding Asian nations, and a trip down into the Pacific region. Now I'm in the Middle East over four years on, which means I'm well overdue a visit back home to England - I can't wait. Even so, this has been a great experience!
