CURRENT MISSION

Experiencing as many different cultures and lifestyles as possible

ABOUT ME

I'm a 25 year old Scottish lad who's currently traveling through South America. I've always been much more interested in meeting the people than places. I studied in Glasgow University and moved to London for work. After 3 years decided to take a break and go traveling and here I am...

PHILOSOPHY

A few quotes that have stayed with me, T. S. Eliot:
"We shall not cease from exploration, and the end of all our exploring will be to arrive where we started and know the place for the first time."

Confucius:
"I hear and I forget. I see and I remember. I do and I understand."

Lao Tzu
“Go to the people. Live with them. Learn from them. Love them. Start with what they know. Build with what they have. But with the best leaders, when the work is done, the task accomplished, the people will say "We have done this ourselves".
