About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To find out where i want live, if want to live anywhere!... or maybe i just want to stay on the road forever!

ABOUT ME

I'm totally free at the moment, i have just emmigrated to Australia and am travelling in my van working along the way to try and see where (and if) i want to settle somewhere. I'm realise i'm really lucky to be able to do this. I have been travelling on and off for 10 years. I love meeting new people from all over the world, i love hearing about people's stories and experiences. I'm liberal and open minded, i love to have a laugh and good times. My ideal night is camping out somewhere sat around a fire with some beers and good company. Saying that i'm pretty happy wherever i am as long as i'm not with people who are narrow and judgemental.

PHILOSOPHY

live and let live....

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

*Climbing Mt Rinjani in Lombok....
*learning to scuba dive in Indonesia!
*Quitting my home, my job and leaving all my friends/family to follow my dream to travel and find where i want to live.
*Buying my van Errol in preparation for my next adventure....
