About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Learn, grow, share, experience and progress

ABOUT ME

Very adventurous, outgoing, easy-going, chilled out, liberal and keen to learn as much as I can about anything I can! I like positive people, willing to teach and willing to learn.

Discovery is what keeps me going, can't get enough of finding new things to experience! Knowledge is powerful and wonderful new experiences can only enrich.

PHILOSOPHY

It's not about life, it's about living...

Do what you want, when you want and say what you need to, when you need to.

"The very basic core of a man's living spirit is his passion for adventure" - Christopher McCandless
