CURRENT MISSION

Somehow getting to see all of NZ while growing bacteria in a lab. Definitely achievable.

ABOUT ME

So for a long time I've had a plan to someday come to New Zealand and it basically happened to me in the form of a job. So here I am in Taupo from January to August looking to make the most of it and see as much of this amazingly gorgeous country as possible. Of course I'd love to meet people along the way so feel free to give me a shout.

PHILOSOPHY

Take it one day at a time and make it up as you go.
