Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
to leave work and travel for a year, expanding experiences and seeing the world
ABOUT ME
I have lived in ireland for the past 3years in the south west. Loving the life down here, 5mins from a great surfing beach, rock climbing on the sea cliffs, mountain walking in Kerry, and cycling....anything and everything outside!!
I have travelled with work in india and passion in africa (rock climbing!)
I work with children with learning disabilities at the moment, it is challenging job being responsible for loads of chilren and developing friendships with families and helping the children reach their potential. Occupational therapy is a fantastic career but i am taking a break next year.
I love meeting new people, seeing new places and seing the world.
I love a challenge and to be outside as much as possible, I have travelled a little but I am taking a year off next year from the end of february....cannot wait
PHILOSOPHY
I am trying to develop my knowledge of Buddhism as I have been brought up from quite spiritual parents, but I have only recently found comfortable with the Buddhism...
Open hearted, content with the NOW and really take notice of the naure, and small things in life and smile every day, developing your own happieness which can then be shared with others, that is what i wish for every day....
