CURRENT MISSION

Chasing the sun in Europe

ABOUT ME

On the 3rd of March 2010 I embarked on my round the world adventures.. just me and my back pack for the next 9 months!!!

Well I'm s 27 year old Aussie girl, who is pretty laid back, loves to chat, laugh, have a drink, go for a run (obviously not all at the same time!)

During the hours of 9 till 5 I'm an accountant.

Outside this time is where all the fun stuff happens, Im a keen photographer, and my Canon EOS40D is never far far from my side. Also into sport, Im a very keen rugby union fan, and can't believe Im going to be in Scandanavia during the Super 14 season!

I also train at the gym, I walk a lot, run, and box and ride my bike. On the weekends I can be found hanging out with my friends, shopping, socialising, hitting the beach or just plain chilling out.
