Adele is reportedly considering travelling around the world to do charity work.

The British singer has felt inspired to help improve the lives of others since she began dating Simon Konecki. Simon is the CEO of the Drop4Drop charity, which provides safe drinking water to Third World countries.

Although Adele recently denied she is taking a five-year break from music, she is believed to be planning to do some travelling with Simon.

"Adele loves the idea of putting some of her earnings towards helping people in Africa. She wants to take at least a year out and travel the Third World with Simon," a source told British magazine Grazia.

The 23-year-old has seen her star rise following the release of her second album 21. Adele won an impressive six Grammys earlier this month and picked up two trophies at the Brit Awards this week.

Although the singer is thrilled with her success, she is determined to keep her feet on the ground. Adele is believed to have been left shaken by the recent death of Whitney Houston and has vowed not to let fame destroy her life.

"Whitney's death really shocked Adele," the source added. "There is no way she wants to be a part of that. She's determined to lead as normal a life as possible."
