ABOUT ME
I really believe life has all these funny little ways of helping us out. I've been back in Aus a bit over a year now after spending a few years travelling after school, since being back I started uni and found learning never gets old! I've just moved from Sydney to Darwin and am A THOUSAND PERCENT excited for the experience! I really enjoy meeting new people, having a drink and a laugh, spontaneity and adventure, reading, writing, talking; language! If you can tell a good story or hold a good conversation we will get along!

Music, Movies, and Books
I have a bookcase overflowing with amazing books that i've read or have accumulated to read! Give me an amazing book and you won't see me till i've eaten up every last word of it! Some faves are On the Road, Shantaram, anything Bryce Courtenay, That deadman dance, Cloud street, Behind the beautiful forever, Vernon God Little, Harry Potter (of course)...and so many more! I'm also massively interested in music, but a bit of everything and anything and nothing in particular!
