CURRENT MISSION

to meet new people who enjoy travel and culture and share our stories.

ABOUT ME

I'm married to Amanda. i'm pretty calm, quiet and relaxed person who will adapt to any environment or situation. i love travelling without a set itinerary and just going with the flow. i hate corruption and exploitation of people. my favourite place to be is on the edge of a cliff or a mountain top taking in the scenery. i love bikes, parachutes and adventure sports. i also like to relax, take a siesta and read a book.

PHILOSOPHY

love your neighbour as yourself, treat others as you would have them treat you. love wins.
