I'm thirty, I manage a charity shop, and I realised that i have put off more travelling for far too long. Due to relationships, jobs, you name it. So I bought a ticket last week, along with a working visa and plan to get acquainted with New Zealand first, and see where it takes me

I speak basic Spanish and more elegant French. I know a few bits and bobs around the house. Can sew and make clothes (if pushed). I pick up languages fast, and find linguistics fascinating.
