CURRENT MISSION

Doing what makes me happy

ABOUT ME

I'm an Irish girl who was born and grew up in Belgium and who always knew she'd end up living in Africa. And I have been now for over three years, here in Ivory Coast. Have traveled a lot and would like to travel more and luckily my job allows me to do that, at least within Africa.

PHILOSOPHY

As cliché as it is, Carpe Diem!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Travelled throughout Sierra Leone on the back of a motor bike, bags and all. Now that was fun!
