Born in Australia, but raised by nomadic parents, I grew up traveling around Asia and the Pacific.

In my late teens I moved back to Australia and have lived here for 20 years, went to uni, setup a web business, worked in the corporate world, etc...

After realising the Corporate world wasn't for me, I ventured into self employment, freelancing for my own clients and was inspired by Timothy Ferriss to work on building a business that would allow me to have more time to travel and spending time outdoors.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Am now going through a nomadic stage while I figure out what's next. Will be heading on a round the world trip to attend a couple of weddings, reconnect with friends in North America and Europe and planning to end up in New Zealand where I'd like to spend more time outside, climbing mountains and white water paddling, building a house and a business (or two).
