After sticking out most of this year in Australia, my kiwi partner Andrew and I have finally made it back to New Zealand. We’re making our way down south to Stewart Island for work. It’s been such a long journey considering all of the difficulties this year has brought... but we’re almost there!!

I'm a Californian with a laid back demeanor who is down for anything. Lives for the ocean. Loves the open road. I'll be looking for places to stay and people to meet over the next month while I eat food, lay on the beach, and probably drink a bit more than I should. ｡◕‿◕｡ let's be friends
