About Me

Well, I'm a nursing student with ambitions of travelling and working in all sorts of places one day. Buut, you never know how life will go. Before my current situation, I had thoughts of being a bush Pilot, an Archaeologist, a writer, or a Psychologist, among other things. I've been to India (and got Malaria), Nepal, Singapore, Malaysia, Australia, Fiji, Mexico, Europe and the States, which have all been good in their own ways. Ummmm, I love music, and a good scarf to wear! ..
