About Me

Hi, I’m Brandon! I’m an extreme unicyclist and entrepreneur from Adelaide, Australia. I run the YouTube channel OnePercentBetter where I create animated book summaries. I help as many people as I can by providing an easy and effective way to learn from the most influential books of all-time.

When I read Rich Dad Poor Dad by Robert Kiyosaki for the first time in 2015, my life changed. It opened me up to the idea that I could live life on my own terms. I was soon obsessed with entrepreneurship and self-development. I’ve now read over 100 books since 2014 and enjoy sharing my knowledge with others.

I’m from a delightful family of 6 and grew up in the Barossa Valley, South Australia. I’m 20 years-old, study a Bachelor of Information Technology at The University of South Australia, and am blessed to have such a gorgeous girlfriend!

In my spare time I enjoy pushing the limits of extreme unicycling, educating the world with whiteboard animations, and vagabonding.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm here to Live. To learn. To laugh. I'm excited about sharing stories, learning from each other, and meeting interesting people. You never know what you can learn from someone else, no matter who they are or where they come from.

Interests

I have a strong history in the world of extreme unicycling. I've travelled to places as far as Montreal, Canada for the World Unicycle Convention where we meet up, have fun, ride hard, and have an epic time!

Currently I'm passionate about animating videos on my self-development YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/c/OnePercentBetter

I also love competitive touch-typing, SEO, vagabonding, reading non-fiction, juggling, and dreadlocks!
