ABOUT ME

fully addicted to travel and seeing as much of the world as i can, but i'm stuck in a full time job and don't have the flexibility to just get up and go wherever I want. I lovvvve my job (teaching high school health and P.E.), but I hate having a career, so i'm trying to get the courage to quit and peace out for as long as i can stay away, but in the meantime, just travelling every chance i get....teachers get sick vacation time:)

update: i feel like the luckiest person alive! i got approved to take a year leave of absence from my job so I'm going to travel around south america for 7 months, then head back to Oz and NZ, and finish up in Thailand. I cannot wait!
