UPDATES
We have a small boy now, so hosting is near impossible in this age bracket with our current place, still keen for meet ups though.
Now currently in Newcastle Australia, you can message us for meet ups and outings, coffee is good.

CURRENT MISSION

travelling as much as we can, meeting great people and hearing their adventures and sharing some along the way!!! *still relevant after all these years :)

ABOUT ME

Currently live in Newcastle working some interesting but tiring jobs, we partake in many CS events and meet-ups, looking to do more traveling as this seems to be our focus of late. we are easy going and like to find people who don't stereotype themselves and others around them.
Open minds are few and far between and yes having an open mind can be a problem as well because there will always be someone trying to fit things in it (poor attempt at ripping off a quote from somewhere I can't remember) ;)

PHILOSOPHY ^^

Brendan says:I'll only live once, so why waste a good opportunity to experience life, the best way so far is travel, I like the feeling of being a kid again and everything being new and exciting again, the best way to achieve that personally I have found has been through travel.
Jo says:I play and I enjoy life, sometimes I do work! ;)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Brendan climbed some ruins in the middle of nowhere in France in the middle of winter, I'll never forget looking up a huge mountain at a great big castle with snow falling all around in complete silence, really amazing experience among many others.
Jo climbed up Grouse Mountain, which was a once in a life experience, well done Jo! ;)
