ABOUT ME
Hey! I'm a Canadian solo traveller and love it dearly! I've met some amazing people and that's why I keep getting back on the road. Currently I'm doing a year of study abroad at Otago Uni. Hoping to meet some people on here who would like to do some weekend trips, go camping, etc. And just hoping to meet some more people in Dunedin since I'm new!
PHILOSOPHY
So much I could write, but... just do what makes you happy.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Last summer I sailed across the Atlantic from the BVIs to Portugal and two things stand out! We had groups of dolphins come and swim along the boat quite a few times, but one group of about 12-15 came up to the bow in a long row and swam in unison that way... it was a pretty amazing moment. The other would be when I was on night shift and we had a clear sky. I saw star beyond star beyond star... beyond star... it was unbelievable. That is definitely the coolest thing I've ever seen.
I've also had a couple of days that stick out from various trips... just a group of people from all over the world hanging out and actually getting to know each other. I think the relationships you can build in such a short time are the most extraordinary things.
