CURRENT MISSION

To enhance my perspective through travel, taking chances, meeting people, creativity and positivity.

ABOUT ME

I studied on exchange last year at Glasgow University and graduated in December. Since then I've been traveling through Europe and have another 3months of living out of my backpack. I've been to different parts of the world from Asia to USA to Pacific, have met many interesting people, and can't seem to stop traveling...

PHILOSOPHY

Let serendipity kick in from time to time...
