About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To Travel the World!!!

ABOUT ME

I am a life goals fanatic, i belive that life is for the living and that every moment should be an adventure to discover new places, your self and new and interesting people.

I believe in having a life goals list and following and achieving all my ambitions. The best book is 101 things to do before you die by Richard Horne, the book is a good starting point if you are interest in creating a life goals list, i believe in not following someone elses ambitions but to follow your own.

I left school at 18 after much studying for GCSE'S & A-Levels and just wanted to do something different. I went to work as a receptionist in a hotel planning to work their for a couple of months and actually staying there for almost 3 years as i really enjoyed the job. I went travelling with Contiki in January around Europe in a really mad eurotrip and had the most AMAZING time ever. I meet new people and experienced different cultures and exciting places. Returning to normality after a trip like that is difficult. Infact i found it impossible and therefore i am about to embark on a world tour. I fly from London to Sydney on Thursday 9th October and there the adventure shall begin...........

PHILOSOPHY

Life is far too short make the most out of every opportunity and never regret anything that made you smile :)

Interests

I love free spirited adventure, I am interested in watching the sun rise over a new horizon, discovering the places in guide books for real, seeing new cultures and customs. I am open to new adventures and know that the best thing about any journey is the people that you meet along the way.

I have come to realise that the smaller the world becomes some things never cease to be amazing and simply take your breathe away.
