About Me
I'm an Australian girl travelling indefiniy, started with Eastern Europe and I also have a UK working visa.
I'm passionate about the world we live in and the people that live in it, making music, sociology & social awareness, my Faith, reading, learning to cook & live self sustainably, living a healthy happy lifestyle and exploring the endless possibilities we have here.
I love using my time (and contributing to projects) that benefit more than a cycle of money going round - but help improve someones life or the world in some small (or large) way. I also genuinely enjoy learning, having time to learn from others and expand my knowledge & skills is very important to me, and hopefully i can return the favour! I really don't mind getting my hands dirty, taking initiative or trying things I haven't done before in work and personal life.
I'm an honest, down to earth & friendly individual who would love to help others that needed it!
