# About me
Well where do I Start..19 years old, blue eyes, smaller than most and down to earth! I adore my friends, family, travelling and of course art - in particular photography. I am a current full time student, studying a double degree of international studies and social work!
However currently I am on a year holiday from uni and have been using my time off to explore the world! :) The first four months, i lived in Vietnam voluntering as an english teacher in the stunning Hon Gai. I then moved up to Pipalyatjara, an aboiriginal community in rural Australia (litterally in the middle of nowhere!) and currently I am traveling around the UK and Europe and will be doing so for the next 3 months!! During this time i have and will be taking a ridculous amount of photographs - capturing both memories and the array of cultures i have had (and will have) the joy of emersing myself in!
I absolutely adore photography :) I think my favourite thing about photography is being able to capture a fraction of a second in a frame and realising that this exact moment will never occur again and that the only documentation of the moment ever occurring is in the photographic evidence. It’s these moments which we normally would overlook and it is not until we see it as a photo - that we are able to appreciate the true beauty of life!
Love to meet new people and see new and indivdual styles of art! feel free to add me as a friend!

***While there is perhaps a province in which the photograph can tell us nothing more than what we see with our own eyes, there is another in which it proves to us how little our eyes permit us to see. - Dorothea Lange
***"I believe in everything until it’s disproved. So I believe in fairies, the myths, dragons. It all exists, even if it’s in your mind. Who’s to say that dreams and nightmares aren’t as real as the here and now?" — John Lennon
