About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Live... and have fun doing it.

ABOUT ME

I have just arrived in Australia on the one year working holiday visa. I am trying to find a nice beach town to live in, so I will be exploring until I find it! I love anything outdoors, but being a Colorado kid born and raised I’m really interested in becoming decent at surfing.

I would love to meet up for coffee or a drink and get to know people all along the way. If there is a couch available, that would be nice, but not necessary. I am more interested in meeting new folks and getting inside perspectives on life in different countries. Call it a survey of possible future residencies.

Please let me know if you are available to meet for a drink or if you are going to be doing something fun in town when I am coming through. I look forward to meeting y'all!

Most would say I am pretty agreeable, I love hearing about and seeing different points of view, this is part of why I travel :) I am very interested in seeing the local side of things, but if you need an excuse to do something touristy that you haven't tried yet, I can be your excuse for going.

Mi Español no esta perfecta, pero yo se algo. A veces es poco comico pero puedo comunicar... mas o menos. Seguramente vamos a reir mucho. My WhattsApp is +1 (970) 2320153. Facebook messenger at e.pfeif.

PHILOSOPHY

Open mind, open heart. Loves the word.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I was living in South America all of last year, jumping around Colombia, Argentina, Chile and Uruguay. I was working online, so I would spend 1 month at a time in different cities in these countries. I met tons of amazing people and was able to take a few weeks to hike through Patagonia.

Teach, Learn, Share

We all have a different view of reality, I think it is important to learn other perspectives to broaden your own. Cheers to meeting soon.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Funny stories, a wealth of liquor/beer knowledge (I used to be a bartender and brew beer), and any adventure we come up with during the visit.
