I’m a Aussie, but I don’t fill all the stereotypes.
My wife and I are running a company to provide swimming and water safety training across China and Australia.
We love to travel and meet new people. The best part of getting about the world is getting to know a new culture and the people.
Cooking and eating would have to be a top 3 passion along with hiking and seeing amazing history.
Very easy going and love to chat. Any interesting insights to where we are traveling would be awesome.
I’ve lived in Thailand, 3 months as a dive master in Koh Tao.
Hong Kong for 6 months as a swimming teacher and trainer. I’ve been in China for 3 years. Slowly learning to speak Mandarin.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like a lot of different styles, but enjoy folk and classic rock the most.
Sci-fi Movies would have to be my favourite genre.
Getting started with books is a bit of a rabbit hole. Fantasy Novels are my favourite in this area.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Had 2 days of snowing while climbing Mt. Kilimanjaro in the middle of summer. The creeks were bubbling happily as we struggled our way up and down.

Teach, Learn, Share

I’m pretty handy, if I don’t know I’ll try to figure it out. I’m a swimming coach and am happy to give tips. (Learning is a slow journey) Never be afraid to ask a question.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I’m great at cooking and can help if anything high(I’m pretty tall) needs fixing.
