About Me

CURRENT MISSION

my heart yearns for profound connections, breath taking adventures and perpetual growth. my mission is to never stop learning and loving and living :) i am currently embarking on a pedal pilgrimage, bicycling throughout Australia and the rest of the world in search of enriching community experiences and to attempt to quench my insatiable thirst for life.

ABOUT ME

i am a lover of many things. music, food, culture, travel, nature, people, art, philosophy, health and wellbeing, etc.. i am a classic libran forever striving for balance. equally love both deeply sincere philosophical ponderings and rollicking belly laughs about sheer nonsense :D

PHILOSOPHY

my most admired philosopher is Socrates, as he reminds us that we don't truly know anything at all. simple yet profound. every moment is a completely new and beautiful opportunity to experience ourselves. open hearts and open minds mean nothing great is left behind :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

i taught english in northeast thailand for 3 months which was extremely challenging but equally rewarding and inspiring. i look forward to doing similar things around the world

Teach, Learn, Share

i see these as the 3 main ingredients to an enriched and meaningful life. teaching, learning and sharing skills and stories, languages and laughs, is what life is all about :)

What I Can Share with Hosts
