  Description

  I am taking a break from studying Environmental Engineering as I am eager to gain practical experience as well as work on my own creative projects. I would love to work on an organic farm as I dream of one day having my own self-sufficient lifestyle. I am using this time off from Uni to broaden my skills and knowledge on sustainability. I look forward to stepping outside of my comfort zone and learning through experience!

Photos

I'd wanted to donate my hair for a long time and finally in Sept 2018, I did! I shaved my head and donated the 22 inches of hair to Variety the Children's Charity. I fundraised $2,500 for children with alopecia or cancer. And also short hair is sooo much easier.

in September of 2018 my Dad and Uncle and I ventured over to France, Spain and Portugal, hiking a snippet of the Camino Way during our travels. My Dad took this photo as we began another day of our journey. Hiking/going for a really long is the best.

My sister and I take a photo of each other in Nara Park, Japan. I enjoy photography, and saved up for a decent camera on my gap year, so as to capture the memories of my travels. My family and I travelled to Japan for 2 weeks in November of 2018.
