CURRENT MISSION

To see as much of the world as possible before I have to "Grow Up" or "Settle Down"

ABOUT ME

I'm still trying to decide what I am going to "Do with my life" but I figure that seeing the world and trying new things will help me find out what I love. I fell in love with Africa as soon as I set foot on the continent, but can't wait to see everything - Nearly every country is on my list of places I want to visit. Since graduating from University in 2007 I've been working seasonally as the only female fishing guide at a Fishing Resort in BC and I've spent my winters travelling as much as possible.
