Welcome to Spin the Globe. I am a second year student studying Bsc Geography at the University of Leicester, England. I am a keen traveller, since I can remember I wanted to become a pilot so I could see the world. After I finished my A-levels I decided to take a Gap Year with three of my best friends to travel to all the places we've always wanted to go! It was such an amazing experience. It helped grow our independence and confidence within ourselves. I think it's very important for everyone to travel, be somewhere different and try something new. Ever since this expedition I have had the bug to travel more and more. Last summer I took the opportunity to re-visit the USA, travel the East Coast, Washington and Chicago! Throughout this trip I was lucky enough to get involved with STA Travel Buzz to share my experiences with the world, through my very own nickname "Surfin' USA".

Over the past couple of years I have found it essential to keep track of everything I have done and every place I have experienced. I have written travel blogs for both my Gap Year and the USA trip which you can both find on this website. I am also a keen travel photographer, you will be able to find a brief gallery of photos that I have put together.
I found that discovering places to visit is best when learning from other peoples experiences, so hopefully what I have written and the photos I have taken will inspire people to travel.
