CURRENT MISSION

Belfast to Beijing Hitchhiking Trip!!

ABOUT ME

I'm Patrick - from Belfast (in Northern Ireland) and currently travelling the world! I am a student at Oxford (in England) studying medicine and I have a real passion for seeing new places and meeting new people. I consider myself a pretty easy-going person. I play a few sports (but am not that good at them), I play a couple of musical instruments (but am not an expert) and like to get involved in lots of things, keep busy and try new stuff as much as possible.

I think traveling is a really great thing to do. There is nothing that can beat getting to know people and understanding what makes them tick.

PHILOSOPHY

It's all about new experiences!
