I'm from England, I'm from a big family so I'm very family orientated, friendly and easy going. I'm a mechanical engineer by trade and have always held a steady job. 2 years ago I came across a difficult decision of whether to continue being comfortable in life or whether to take a risk by quitting my job and selling my house to travel.

I decided to go on my lifelong dream to travel the world. So far it has been the best decision of my life, I've learnt so much, met many great people and experienced different cultures. It has really opened up my eyes.

I love meeting new people to share knowledge, experiences and laughter. I like to play and watch most sports. I love the outdoors, anything from hiking to just sitting on a bench with a great view.
I'm hoping to learn Spanish to help me with my travelling especially when I eventually get to South America (I know us English aren't the best at learning other languages due to laziness 🙈)

I'm a big foodie and love trying new foods and learning about the different cultures. My current mission is to try traditional dishes from every country I visit.

I'll look forward to meeting you all and sharing great experiences with each other ✌️

Music, Movies, and Books

Music:
I'm pretty easy going when it comes to music, I like anything from Rock to Classical, Opera to R&B and Jazz to Country 😄 But my favourites are Indie, Ska, Reggae and Oldies

Books:
I've never actually got into reading. My mum is a big reader though. I'd probably say a cooking or baking book as I love to be in the kitchen.

Movies:
I love Comedies, Action and Thrillers. My favourite actor is Adam Sandler.
