VOLUNTARY WORK + TRAVEL EXPERIENCE
1996
Æ
Prior to starting my University course, I spent five months teaching and travelling in Kenya as part of a Gap Year project. My job was to teach 13 and 14 year olds English and Ethics for a term in a
Kenyan school. I was in charge of the class for a term, organised and marked their exams, and took part in organising and participating in extra curricular activities. I had also been commissioned
by the Footprint series of guidebooks to collect first-hand research material for their new book on East Africa, so after the term had finished, I travelled around Kenya and Uganda collecting
information.
I have travelled extensively throughout SE Asia and Japan in the past couple of years, through East Africa during my Gap Year and have conducted an urban study of Copenhagen as part of my
university course. For each of these photography was a major element. I have also visited Australia, Russia, North America, Jordan, Guatemala, Brazil, South Africa and Europe.
