About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To travel as much as I can for as long as I can!

ABOUT ME

I have been working and living in China for the last 12 months and will be travelling over the summer from Nepal to Beijing then onto Mongolia, South Korea and Hong Kong. I will be getting in touch with people as I go. I am extremly active and love travelling to new places. I think different cultures are facinating and I feel lucky to be able to indulge for the next few months. I adore food and cooking and spend a lot of time writing about food as well as eating it! I am always keen to try anything new and love hearing about other people their lives and experiences.

PHILOSOPHY

In the end it wont matter how many breaths you took but how many moments took your breath away

Music, Movies, and Books

Currently reading a lot of historical fiction inclueding the Rome series by Colleen McCullough and just finished Pillers of the Earth by Ken Follet which was incredible. Mixing these with some lovely romantic trash as well! Also started the 4 Hour Chef by Timothy Ferriss. I love so many movies to mention.
