About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To travel the US and Canada. See some local colour. Learn and grow.

ABOUT ME

I'm a 23 year old man from Australia, taking some time off to travel before I jump into a post-graduate course.

I'm independent, easy-going, approachable, and I love learning.

I'm looking for friendly and sociable people, and good conversation and advice.

PHILOSOPHY

Conscientiousness, and open-mindedness.

Music, Movies, and Books

Well, I'm reading David Foster Wallace right now, and I just read Roberto Bolano.

I'm listening to Brian Eno, Panda Bear, The-Dream, Pavement. And mostly whatever.

I'm watching almost anything, if it's good.

Teach, Learn, Share

Well, I majored in Philosophy at University. Particularly Continental, or European philosophy. And I love to talk about big ideas.

I like to cook with people, and discuss and share recipes and methods.

I like to talk about and compare curious cultural minutia.

I like to learn practical skills, like how to build or fix or work things. Technical know-how will always be interesting to me.
