CURRENT MISSION

Figure out what I'm doing with my life...

ABOUT ME

I moved to Reading in January to work for a charity after a stint living and working in Luxembourg. I'm pretty laid-back and always up for trying new things/visiting new places... I also love cooking and eating, and find this the most enjoyable part of travelling!

PHILOSOPHY

"He who is afraid to throw the dice will never roll a six."
