People lover, nature lover, hoping to come across as much of both as possible during my travels. Love sharing stories, food, drink, music, along with writing, drawing, hiking, swimming and general exploring.

Usually a high school English teacher but currently on a year long trip birding around Australia and the globe.

Interests

Although I've got a fair few hobbies, been obsessed with birdwatching from a real young age so spend a lot of time trying to find birds out in the bush and in between wherever I'm traveling as well. Such a good hobby because gets me outdoors constantly, and have had some pretty magical experiences tracking down birds I haven't seen before.
