This is my first time solo travelling around Europe and I'm keen to meet people and learn new things! I'm nineteen and having a gap year from study to work and travel the world. I'm not sure what I want to pursue as a career yet but I've always had an interest in the arts - literature, writing, history, journalism & helping people. I love a good adventure, whether it be bushwalking, swimming, camping, exploring nature or grooving to music, but I'm always up for just chilling with friends over a decent cup of tea and delicious snacks.
