About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Last year I quit my job to travel...it was the best decison I ever made!

ABOUT ME

Last year I quit my job in NYC to travel. And it was the best decision I ever made! I've been traveling since October 2013, and now I am coming to the end of an amazing "career break".

www.LettersTo1978.wordpress.com

In the 70's my mum documented her travels by sending letters home to her father as she traveled overland to Australia. This blog is my reply to her letters as I travel now.

Hmmm...about me...I love to travel (surprising no!?). I have lived in a few places, which I am really proud of - London, Barcelona, Salvador (Brazil) and most recently NYC. I have loved each city and the people within them even more so!

I am happiest when I am outdoors and scrambling up rocks, skiing or even just hitting a ball around on the beach. Good people, good music and scary adventure and I am good to go!

That's enough about me, what about you?!

PHILOSOPHY

Never regret anything! What happens, happens, and it happens for a reason. So make the most out of it!
Laugh
Glass half full! (Well I prefer mine to be topped up quickly!)
