ABOUT ME

Hi!

I am Glen, age 26, and my day job is to be a commercial lawyer. But outside of my day job I like to travel and the best way to travel is to get to know those who actually live in the city!

I have travelled quite a lot in Europe (Scandinavia, Iceland, Baltics, CIS), the USA and also Borneo in my time. This summer I am spending a few weeks in Finland and a few weeks in Iceland

PHILOSOPHY

Have goals. But goals that are both goals in themselves (making money is not a goal!) and goals that do not damage the earth too much.
