ABOUT ME

Heya
I'm Charlotte and am probably the most easygoing person you'll ever know. I am game for whatever life brings (as long as it doesn't involve huge quantities of spiders)

Im a student at reading uni studying environmental science. I lived in london most of my life and then moved to connecticut for 4 years with my family. I adore traveling and my mission is to hit as many european festivals as i can. I've done Carnival in Venice and Valentines Day in Barcelona. My latest trip was to Munich for Oktoberfest and my birthday...and it was amazing beyond belief. I really want to do the flag-throwing in Italy and Solstice at Stonehenge but we'll have to wait and see.

My ultimate dream would be to get a photojournalism job for national geographic then I could travel for free.

I love having a good time and am game for anything whether its bungee jumping or bar hopping.

PHILOSOPHY

"Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover".

"Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts. Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the earth all one's lifetime".

---Mark Twain

Alice came to a fork in the road. "Which road do I take?" she asked.
"Where do you want to go?" responded the Cheshire cat.
"I don't know," Alice answered.
"Then," said the cat, "it doesn't matter."

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Whilst in the Amazon a shaman came to our ecolodge and gave us a parting ceremony. It was pitch dark except for a few candles and we could hear drums from a local village. She was an extraordinary lady with such character. It was a surreal experience...
