About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To continue to enjoy life, travel, learn and meet as many wonderful people as possible. Take each day as it comes and give what I can, where I can.
ABOUT ME
November 2014:
After 3yrs working like a maniac since graduating, I've quit all my jobs, sold my car, moved all my things back to my parents house and basically quit real life for the time being. My plan is to travel until I run out of cash and hopefully do some courses along the way. I did some Ashtanga yoga teacher training in Goa and am hoping to find some acupuncture training somewhere. Would also like to do some diving. Other than that, just exploring and adventuring. Currently in Bali but hoping to work my way through Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia, Myanmar and if possible Nepal and back to Northern India. Planning to look into volunteering with some community based NGOs along the way but I'm very much at the start of my journey and the plans are yet to be made. Then I can start thinking about the real world again with a fresh outlook (or not...)
Interests
Yoga, sailing, water sports in general (still do a bit of instructing, just for fun), hiking, climbing, anything outdoors! Also a big animal and nature lover and very fond of relaxing with a good book.

Music, Movies, and Books
With movies, I'm that person who constantly gets the response "I can't believe you've never seen...!" I'm not a big TV watcher (haven't had one in about 7yrs), but I like to watch the occasional movie or series on Netflix when I'm too tired to do anything else or when the weather's really terrible. Most recently I watched "The Bridge" a Danish/Swedish series and "Top of the Lake" from NZ - both equally brilliant and I'd recommend them to anyone. When it comes to music and books, my interests are pretty diverse. Many of my friends are musicians ranging in genre from classical to rock to jazz and I love it all. I'm a big reader. Just finished what exists of George RR Martin's endless series "a song of ice and fire" and am currently reading a book given to me by a Hare Krishna in India called "the journey home" by Radhanath Swami...
Teach, Learn, Share
I teach yoga and Pilates and I'm a physio so if you have any aches or pains or niggles, I can help you figure them out and put you on the path to recovery or if not I can give a damn good deep tissue massage!
