About Me

CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

I am not a girl who wants to frown! I like laughing, eating I will eat most anything, walking around sometimes aimlessly, I love to read and am not generally considered noisy. Sometimes I find it difficult to say bluntly "no", it is cultural! A Piscean so quite emotional at times! I am a good listener I think. I am the middle child of 3 girls, many mischievous shenanigans together! I am an ambassador of New Zealand so I strive to live up to the reputation of adventurous kiwis! One thing that annoys me about me is I am allergic to cats, all other animals are cool by me. Including iguanas, I have a pet one.
