ABOUT ME
I've been a traveller since I was 3.
In that time I have been fortunate to live in many beautiful countries.
Life is what you make of it. View it with a smile and it will be a wonderful experience.
I like to keep fit and (partly due to my Irish genes) am never shy of a good time!
PHILOSOPHY
Do unto others as you would have them do unto you

Teach, Learn, Share
