Description
Hi, I'm Sophie!
I am a keen traveller on a bit of a gap year post university! I thrive through meeting and getting to know new people, and getting to do activities that allows me to achieve this. I studied Politics and International Relations at uni, and am taking some time off before pursuing a postgraduate degree. My studies definitely supports my passion for learning about new cultures, languages and immersing myself in them through travel.
I am also a keen videographer and photographer, I have my own YouTube channel that I post videos of my travels on! I would love to connect with fellow creators and people in the visual arts sphere.
I would describe myself as a very active person, you will find me outside most of the day, or trying to be outside regardless of the weather. I am a keen rock climber, hiker and snowboarder, and am looking to really get involved in the former two when I travel to Europe in July! That being said, I absolutely love discovering new hobbies and interests, and would love the opportunity to do something I have never done before!
