About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Discover everything. To explore and to seize every opportunity.

ABOUT ME

How would I describe myself?

Kind, affable and a people-pleaser!

I live to be useful. Whenever I take part in anything, I need to be active and helpful to the people I am working with.

I love technology so I decided to study Computing. However, I also love the arts, and admire creativity.
"When I grow up" i want to be a creative technologist. (google it! its cool!)

I like keeping in shape and eating well and run whenever possible (just got a Nike+ which is awesome!).

I love travelling. I've been fortunate enough to travel to lots of different places including Canada, America, France, Spain, Germany, Tanzania, Serbia to name but a few!
My favorite travels so far have been in Canada (particularly in BC), but I look forward to the day when I find an even better place!

PHILOSOPHY

I live my life for the moments of feeling infinite. When for a brief moment, you are living in the precise present. When you are exactly where you want to be, and with exactly who you want to be with.

Some of my favourite quotes (I love quotes) are:

Do what you love and you'll never have to work a day in your life.

Leave the others to guess whether you are working or playing.

You don't stop doing things because you get old, you get old because you stop doing things.

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am new to this CS Project. I had heard about it a long time ago but It wasn't until I met a friend who had actually done it, that I decided to get actively involved.

She says she has had some wonderful experiences through the CS Project and recommended I have a go.

So here it goes!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

In Canada we were on a ferry crossing a gigantic lake. And suddenly a school of dolphins started jumping and dancing around the boat. The sun was setting, and the experience was unforgettable.

I've experienced lots of amazing things but I think thats the one that sticks with me the most.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm going to think about this.

I can teach you about Computing, Maths, Logic.
I could also teach you to row.

Let me know!
