CURRENT MISSION

To know a little bit about everything...but nothing about anything!

ABOUT ME

I'm 22.
I'm Australian.
I study Civil Engineering and Linguistics

It's a little bit hard to sum myself up in so many words and to judge somebody on so little is even harder. But what the hell, life wasn't meant to be easy!

I suffer from FOMO (the fear of missing out) so if ANY of my friends or doing ANYTHING fun i feel left out so i generally will cancel whatever boring thing is stopping me (work, general life) and do the fun stuff!

I have just finished a 2 month trip around South-East Asia and now i´m in Europe for the summer...basically i've been chasing the sun, but catching the rain! I'm very easy to get along with and enjoy sitting around and chatting, drinking and every now and then heading to a club for a big night out. At the same time i value my own time and find it very peaceful chilling out and watching a movie or just getting absorbed in a good book.

One thing that fascinates me is language and the way it works. I feel deprived, since being from Australia I can only speak english. Travelling is one of the best ways to be immersed in language and i'm constantly on the lookout for interesting ways that language works in other cultures.

PHILOSOPHY

Enseña, aprende, comparte

I can always fix a TV. I can also organise your Itunes. If it requires analytical thought processes then I'm the man for the job.

As for learning I would like to learn about the world, from an insiders point of view. Which means meeting people who live in the world.
