CURRENT MISSION

I'm currently taking a gap year and am about to travel around New Zealand and Australia for 6 months and a half, on my own!

ABOUT ME

Okay, so my name's Julie, 19, I'm a Swiss and Irish girl with Spanish origins. I love traveling, writing, reading, hiking, cycling, skiing, photography, pretty much all kinds of music,... I'm addicted to nature, chocolate and American TV series (British ones as well, when i think about it!). I practice yoga and modern/contemporary dance. In my free time, I work as a volunteer for the WWF, I animate summer camps and activities for kids.
I'm really easy going and open-minded, I have a good sense of humour (or so I think ;), I have a thirst for adventure and I always want to discover other cultures and ways of living and see new places!

PHILOSOPHY

Life is a beautiful gift, it's not something to mess with. I want to use my time on this earth to see and discover as much things as I can. It's too sad to have regrets when you look back at what you've lived and done, so I'm doing my best to fulfill my dreams while I can (we never know what tomorrow will be made of)!
