About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To enjoy life, travel and meet amazing people from all backgrounds.

ABOUT ME

I am a relaxed , easy going person when it comes to traveling. I love to meet new people and get to know the place like a local does. I had the travel bug from a young age. Moved from Canada to New Zealand and have never regretted the decision. I have had amazing experiences and am looking forward to being back there in feb/march. I have been traveling since December, went back home to Canada and enjoyed the nostalgia. Had my first taste of South America in January, I loved every second of it! Unfortunately, my friend and i were in a local bus accident and had to cut the trip short. I am looking forward to going back to Ecuador and seeing more of South America! I am currently in Wellington working full time and enjoying every moment of my time here.

PHILOSOPHY

" Experience is not what happens to you. It is what you do with what happens to you". Aldous Huxley

" Courage does not always roar, sometimes courage is the quiet voice at the end of the day, saying "I will try again tomorrow". Mary Anne Radmacher

Wanderlust- A desire to travel , to understand one's very existence.
