About Me

I'm an open-minded 30 year-old earthling who grew up in Australia, currently living in Amsterdam. Travelling makes me feel grounded and fired up at the same time. But I'm pretty sure I'm preaching to the converted by saying this on CS ;)

Having fun and not taking life too seriously are priorities of mine. A nice day for me would involve; drinking tea, listening to music, having a dance, watching a decent (weird) film and exploring. I'm also really into food and cooking.

Genuine souls spark a fire inside me. Real people. Weird, fun, silly, exciting. Different.

Shoot me a message and let's have a chinwag

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Walked up the side of volcano Mt Vesuvius in Italy. It was too windy so they closed off the stairs, so we jumped the fence and walked up the lava channels to the crater! Mind-blowing...
