About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Meet new people, culture and get of the beaten track, new friends a must!!!
ABOUT ME
I was Born in Durban South Africa where I just revisited, I then moved to New Zealand's north island, and I'm living in Australia (Victoria) when away from my travels
PHILOSOPHY
A youth once questioned a lonely old man " what is life's heaviest burden?" To which the old man replied having nothing to carry. I personally wish to leave a positive mark on this world and meet as many new people along the way as possible.
