    Travelling

  • Description

    Hey there! I'm an artist who loves to explore new places.

    I first went traveling when I was 18, for a year-long solo trip to NZ via Indonesia which changed the way I could see myself living in the future. I'd planned to escape the UK again, booking a one-way trip to South America in 2020 to see where life took me... but then 2020 happened. Since I was stuck in the Uk I decided to study illustration to become a more professional artist.

    Now the world is open again I'm excited to get out there and experience more of it! It'd be great to meet and get to know people living alternative lifestyles with a focus on connecting with nature and sustainability. I’m keen to learn, work, and meet some cool people along the way. When I finish my degree, I want to live nomadically, working as a freelance artist specializing in comics, paintings, and tattoos.

    I also like to hike, swim, go out to events, e.c.t. Spending time in nature is something I do to calm myself and feel more at ease with the world around me.

    I'm trying to learn more Spanish so any practice is good. I also know some Japanese and French, and some basic words in other languages. Unfortunately, growing up in the UK has meant that I've been mostly exposed to people who only speak English, so haven't had much chance to practice other languages with fluent speakers. I believe that when you go to another country you should make an effort to learn the language even if it’s just the basics.

    Not sure how to end this.... Anyway, thanks for reading to the end!
