About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To enjoy the next week in Colombo - meet lots of people and see some good stuff!

ABOUT ME

Sociable, respectful, honest, straight forward
Like active stuff, boxing, yoga, meditation, eating, dancing, music.
love meting new people of all ages
I do quite a lot of house/ pet sitting in return for free accommodation - this is a great way of living cheaply and getting to see lots of interesting places.
I started travelling in 2008 when I went to Thailand and Oz for 3 yrs. Since then I've gone home to earn money and travelled to South America, the USA, China, South Korea, Japan, The Philippines, Thailand and NZ for 6 months. Looking forward to all my future adventures and the great people I will meet along the way! :O)

PHILOSOPHY

Treat others like you want to be treated
Don't follow the crowd
Money won't make you happy
Work to live - don't live to work
Take care of your mind and body - they serve you well
Eat with compassion (vegan)live with passion
