Hi there,

I'm Abe – a late-20s Kiwi who has been living in Scotland for the past four months. I'm a tall, quiet, friendly guy who adores animals, writing, travel and technology.

By trade, I'm a copywriter and communications coordinator. I love helping people express themselves creatively, and for the past five years, I've worked as a digital content consultant/social media manager for several e-commerce and technology companies throughout New Zealand.

At present, I'm staying with a family friend near Stirling, writing freelance video game reviews and taking care of two Great Dane X Poodles and a Golden Labrador.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Back in 2012, I opted to swap stable employment, security and comfort for a year in Canada and 20,000 KM road-trip around North America. Recently, I've done it again, and headed over to the UK to see what else is out there.
