I love the time I get to spend with my Daughter, Son, and partner.

Originally born in sydney, traveled all parts of here and there, Moved to the Gold Coast to be close to my kids.

I'm a positive/talkative individual, Always happy & smiling, or thinking about everything and anything. Always happy to help a hand when free, and really enjoy meeting people, I go where the wind takes me. I absolutely love to snap photos of unsuspecting models, I like un-mannequin-ed photos more than posed ones.

Love playing musical instruments with my kids as well as reading & playing with my camera.

PHILOSOPHY

Get it done & have fun doing it!

Music, Movies, and Books

As obnoxious as he may be, he makes a good read, Jeremy Clarkson,
Justin Petrone - "My Estonia"
Alexandre Dumas - "The count of Monte Cristo"

I find it difficult to not enjoy a piece of literature which I read for a host of different reasons, but mainly autobiographies & anything which helps me open & grow my mind.

Hilariously silly movies like:
BeerFest
Super Troopers

and the two most recent versions of 'The Count of Monte Cristo'

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Sailed the Arctic circle.
Battled 38m waves and 200knt winds for a week

Lived in a Budhist Martial arts Academy & Temple in Northern China.

Became a father and Husband at 22.

Teach, Learn, Share

Have had a varied and eclectic life, I'm still very much learning myself. But always happy to share what I know (or think I know ;) )

I can teach you some pretty amazing knot tieing and rope art or how to play didgeridoo or basic guitar.

Quote I can live by.
You never know when you're going to die but it's your choice when you want to live.
