Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
I'm travelling to cuba in July with some friends initially then will be travelling on my own cuba aiming to study afro cuba dance, cuban follkloric dance styles. I'm keen to meet people who are into cuban dance and music and to explore and travel around c
ABOUT ME
I'm dying to get exploring and travelling again, have been in london for nearly two years now having lived in scotland for a long time , but now feeling a bit of wanderlust again and the need for lots of experiences in the outdoors , warmers weather and overhwelming scenery for a bit to escape the madness of london.
I work in the development /education sector , very interested in international development issues,sustainable development issues and refugee/migration issues.
My major passion is dance , particularly african and contemporary dance forms anad I have studied these in west africa and in london currently.
I love travelling, but don't get time or have enough money to do as much travelling as I would like
PHILOSOPHY
I'm very open to new experiences and exploring new cultures. I particularly love learning new dances and music from different countries.
I believe in living life to the fullest everyday, my friends would say I try to do too many things , but I love the diversity of experiences that are possible in life and I try and taste as many as possible.
I always search for the creative elements in life and seek out artists and those who are challenging social injustices and issues in the system through their artistic work or their way of living
