About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To travel the world, take beautiful photos and tell beautiful stories

ABOUT ME

I'm a Canadian journalist spending the year travelling and looking to enter the big leagues of foreign corresponding work, basing myself out of London. I plan to explore throughout the UK and Europe, trying to do so on a freelancers budget. I also have a passion for charitable work and have volunteered teaching Burmese refugees in Mae Sot, Thailand. I have also been involved in Street Soccer Canada and the Homeless World Cup which provides sport for the marginalized of society. I am always looking for new ways to help those in need.

PHILOSOPHY

Leave a place better than when you found it. Do random acts of kindness. Make people laugh and laugh even louder.

Interests

going for coffee/drinks, shopping, jogging, football - we call it soccer ;)
