About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Combining travelling with teaching (or some sort of volunteer work) with photography so i can combine my passion with helping people and experiencing the way others live all around the world

ABOUT ME

I'm a little mixed. With 3 nationalities and no place that i would really call home, i like to think that i can adapt myself in any kind of environment. Born in England, moved to Australia with my parents when i was 4 and have been living in France for the last 2 years. I get itchy feet after a few months of being in one city..
I've gained a lot from my visits to India in particular. I appreciate the little things in life a lot more and have an extreme urge to just pack up everything one day and buy a one way ticket to the other side of the world to immerse myself into another culture. I love trying different food, learning about different religions, learning different languages and meeting completely different people.

PHILOSOPHY

Try and absorb all the positive things you see or do in a day and channel your bad energy into something that makes you happy. SMILE! Even if people look at you strangely and you feel like an idiot, its guaranteed to make you happy for no particular reason.

Interests

Travelling, Photography, Film, Music, Art, Street Art, trying out new recipes, meeting new people..
