About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to dance with monkies whilst eating turkish delight, oh and travel and meet great people with big old open minds.

ABOUT ME

born uk, hippie english parents moved to new zealand to a commune when i was young.
we had a goat farm.
School in northland and then auckland.
have always had a keen eye for social scenes and dynamics, so partied from very young age, moved out of home young, so was always independant.
Uni in wellington, great times, great city.
Became a teacher, taught technology two years, one great year in london, then moved to winchester where i live now.
travelling is something i fit in at least three times a year, so important, helps you to let go of any preconceptions.
I am heading to london to do my masters after a well earned trip home to see the mother land.

PHILOSOPHY

as it is always so supprising, and an adventure always awaits..
