About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Brightening the world through random acts of kindness!

ABOUT ME

I think I have a friendly, easy-going personality. I am polite, helpful and generous with a dry sense of humour. I love travelling. I have been lucky enough to visit many European countries as well as Australia, Japan, Mexico and the USA.
