About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Explore the South of France, get to know the land and learn basic French, then hitchhike to Paris to see friends.

ABOUT ME

I'm currently a student at Bristol University, majoring in Religious Studies with a focus on eastern religions, especially Daoism. I love Bristol, it has an inventive and innovative feeling and is not big enough to feel claustrophobic.

Before I came to back to England I lived in both China and Taiwan for 2 years learning the language (Mandarin and a bit of Taiwanese) and teaching English. I would like to go back to Taiwan for another year at some point to bring my speaking to the next level.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Lying in a pool at the base of a gorge, where the water from a hot spring mixes with the cool water of a fast flowing river, watching the stars talking and sharing the experience with a good friend.
