About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Travel to all the places I've ever dreamed of checking out

ABOUT ME

5'8" dude, dark hair. Fun loving but generally fairly quiet. Love the outdoors. Pubs rather than clubs. Cannot dance for the life of me.

Open minded. Multicultural upbringing. Some French family, some Dominican family. Grew up in middle east, south east asia and the pacific. Have been in Australia for the last 12 years.

Hobbies tend to cycle through scuba diving, hiking, rock climbing and cycling depending on seasons and where I've last injured myself.

PHILOSOPHY

Can't say I really have a personal philosophy. I believe I don't need religion or patriotism to form my own moral compass. I'm fairly optimistic that humanity is slowly maturing into a more and more responsible, moral and ethical global society over the centuries, despite the ups and downs.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Recently, while doing volunteer work on an archaeological survey in Jordan, we watched the sunset in the basalt desert from the ruins of 2000 yr old Roman fort, while quietly drinking a couple of cold beers. It was surreal.
