Hey :) my names Matty, I've been travelling now for the most part of ten years and cant really see myself stopping for a while.
I am Scottish and come from the famous town for 'smokies' called Arbroath.
I believe in a more peaceful outlook on things which i would say gives me a more calm and welcoming approach to life while at the same time i do love a challenge.
Love playing sports and always up for a good laugh.
A nice bevy woudnt go a miss

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Camping on top of an inactive volcano while to my right an active volcano sprays and gushes lava all night. In the middle looking over the town of Antigua (Guatamala) there was a huge lightning storm. And to the left there was another active volcano in the distance firing up lava. And the cherry on top is that a few dogs joined us for our trip so they chilled with us all night also 🌋
