ABOUT ME

What's going on?!

I’m Anf and I’m 20 years old and feeling older everyday. I was born and raised in the beautiful (albeit boring) Essex countryside, just north of London. I'm currently studying (sometimes) History at Flinders University in Adelaide (via Leicester University in England).

In July 2012 I moved to Australia by myself to live, study and travel. This experience ignited something in me that I'm sure was always there - the need to travel. Now I can't imagine living my life without the freedom to meet new people, see new places and have new experiences. I'm constantly planning and budgeting my next trip. I want to see everything this crazy world has to offer. And I'd love to meet new people while doing it.

I'm unsure about my future. And I'm perfectly happy about that. Nothing scares me more than the idea of being trapped by circumstance. No time. No money. No problem. There is a way and I will always find it. I've always wanted to teach, to help and to inspire. Perhaps I was meant to do this around the world? Who knows - I sure don't. But I know I'm going to enjoy finding out.

"There was nowhere to go but everywhere, so just keep on rolling under the stars".

PHILOSOPHY

Until I find the perfect words to express myself, I'll keep stealing the words of others:

"Nothing behind me, everything ahead of me, as is ever so on the road." - Jack Kerouac, On the Road.

"The best teacher is experience and not through someone's distorted point of view.” ― Jack Kerouac, On the Road.

“Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world.” - Nelson Mandela.

"It's as realistic as a cotton-wool tiger riding a tractor through a teardrop." - Charlie Brooker.

"I've got the willingness and stupidity to try anything. If I think it's even remotely possible, I'll do it." - Travis Pastrana.

"Driven by the irony that only being shackled to the road could ever I be free". - Frank Turner, The Road.

"Follow your inner moonlight; don't hide the madness". - Allen Ginsberg.

"Buy the ticket, take the ride." - Hunter S. Thompson.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've had wild penguins walk out of the sea and through my legs on Tasmania's East Coast.

I've mountain-biked with 6 time paralympic gold medallist Michael Milton.

I've hiked glaciers, kayaked with seals and tramped across volcanoes in beautiful New Zealand.

That's three. That's the start.
