CURRENT MISSION

To progressively broaden my experience of the world, start off small and wind up in the wildest of places. I want to meet loads of interesting new people with different views and ideas to my own. I want to go out into the world and experience it.

ABOUT ME

My ethos for life is to experience everything, I want to dabble in different careers and travel the world. I love reading and writing and all artsy crafty things. Meeting new people is something I get a bit nervous about but I am determined to get better at it and make friends all over the place. I adore good food and want to try different foods from all over the world (apart from Durian fruit, I never want to eat that again!)

PHILOSOPHY

Every experience, whether good or bad, is still an experience. Appreciate it, learn from it.
