About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To live, to be in a place thats foreign, to be uncomfortable and see what I'm made of.

ABOUT ME

I'm a happy person always trying to see the best in people. My friends call me genuine and too kind for my own good but it has helped especially being asked to live in a house with strangers who I met a day before. I love experiencing things and I'm going on an 8 month trip because I feel that to fully experience the culture or the language of a place you have to be there for a while.

PHILOSOPHY

Treat others like you would like to be treated. Also I'm working on live everyday like its your last.

Interests

Music, Reading, TV series, Surfing, Beer, Scotch, Architecture, Football, Cricket, Relaxing.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Actually it has really just happened recently but I lived in a house in Portugal with 13 people of whom I didn't know for 3 weeks.

Teach, Learn, Share

Languages is what I would like to learn but as I'm so young being able to teach anyone anything will be difficult. After this trip hopefully this will change!
