Dont cry because its over, smile because it happened

About Me

I'm just loving life and trying not to take it too seriosuly whilst I'm young and have no ties. I have spent the past 2 years travelling the world and having a bloody great time. The need to earn some serious money and just wanting to be home for a while and live a normal life instead of out of a backpack meant that for the past few months I have been living back in Manchester and lecturing history at the local uni. I havent a clue what possessed them to trust me with it, but they did and I didnt manage to bore anyone to sleep (that I noticed), so a job well done I think.
But, the back account has been topped up and its out with the old backpack and off to South America tomorrow for a couple of months. If I get my way i will meet a gorgeous Brazilian man and live in sin in the sun drinking wine and being happy. Then Its off to India for a couple of months this summer to work for a childrens charity i support. Then its back to reality, and to sorting out my life. Im getting on now, I have to stop all this pissing about, buggering off to the other side of the world. (although who says I do? I am gonna fight against domesticity for as long as I can. But, when I come back, I'm planning to do a masters in development studies, and then work for some NGO saving the world.
I like positive people, happiness and smiles. Lifes too short to be miserable, so count your blessings and live life to the full.....
