ABOUT ME

Hello I'm Rachel!
I was born in Singapore but currently studying medicine in Dublin, Ireland. I'm very easy-going and I absolutely love adventures and exploring new places! Bottomline: I loooove to travel!! and I take the opportunity to travel whenever I get breaks from school. I find it really fun to research and plan your own trip! Also I'm into gastronomy so I go wherever the food takes me.... nom nom nom :-)
