CURRENT MISSION

Backpack through South East Asia, before taking the ancient silk route through China and Central Asia into Russia - and have a great time whilst doing it!

ABOUT ME

24 years old, bored of working in London so taking the Summer off to travel and see South East and Central Asia as well as China and Russia. Keen to meet cool people and try and discover the fun and interesting places off the beaten track.

PHILOSOPHY

Never take life seriously. Nobody gets out alive anyway.

As long as I don't die, it will have been a success.

Really enjoyed my trip to Japan in February - from the food in Tokyo, the temples in Kyoto, the history of Nara and the charm of Shimoda. Relaxing in a traditional onsen will live long in the memory.
