About Me

I have recently returned to the 9-5 life, although no fun! it will help my save money and gain experiences to start my own organisation in the not so distant future, no doubt returning to a nomadic lifestyle one day too!

I am currently living in Alice Springs, working in Industry development for tourism Central Australia. I would love to show you my part of Australia :)
