About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Have fun in Glasgow!

ABOUT ME

I'm happy go lucky, easy going and terrible at writing about myself :). I crave adventure, i love dancing all night, going to the beach, festivals, summertime and hammocks. My ambition is to see as much of the world as possible, I'm fascinated by other cultures. I like it when strangers talk to me on trains and when people smile at me in the street. Meeting new people excites me.

PHILOSOPHY

Be cheerful, strive to be happy.
