About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To see lots of fantastic places, do lots of amazing things and meet lots of lovely people

ABOUT ME

I've taken a year or so off work to go travelling the world. I love meeting new people and I like to get my hands dirty and try new things, even if they scare me (like the world's highest bungy jump!).

I've been travelling for 3 months now, and really loving it. My next stop is Japan, if you can give me any advice on good places to visit, or can even offer me somewhere to sleep for the night, please say hello!

PHILOSOPHY

The quote "Live like there's no tomorrow, Love like you've never been hurt, and Dance like no one is watching" sums up my outlook perfectly.

I believe in living life, rather than just spectating, and making the most of every opportunity. In fact, I strongly believe in making your own opportunities.

I think the most important thing in life is happiness. If you have happiness, then you have everything you need.

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies: I'm into a wide range of films, and recently have being trying to watch things that I wouldn't normally think to watch. Although I don't like anything too gory.

Music: I love music and it forms a significant part of my life through the dancing I do, and just in my spare time. I have a wide taste, and tend to like anything from alternative, rock and indie, to chilled out electronica and everything in between.

Books: Again I like to read a wide variety of books, basically, whatever I can find.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

My top experience is skydiving over Plettenberg Bay in South Africa. Nothing else can compare to the feeling of free-falling over a beautiful landscape.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can (and have in the past!) teach a variety of things - equipment allowing, I can teach up to advanced level poi, hula-hoop, aerial pole and drawing/sculpture. I could also share at least the basics in juggling, diabolo and I'm sure other related things, that I can't remember off the top of my head!

I would love to learn more trapeeze, silks, cocoon, advanced pole and anything else aerial. I've got an open mind, and love discovering new things.

Kenya, Lesotho, Malaysia, Namibia, Norway, South Africa, Swaziland
