About Me

Growing up in a small town in Wellington, New Zealand, I was never a big traveler. I didn't take my first trip overseas until I was 22. After university, I went on my first ever backpacking trip in Europe with a couple of mates from my University. The experience that I had from the trip can only be described with one word "Amazing"

At the end of my European travels I returned home and two months later I decided to move to Australia in hoping to start a new life and built a foundation in Australia (or should I say "the land of opportunities" which many of us kiwis tend to refer to) .

I have managed to travel to many amazing places in both within Australia and overseas and have met and made friends with some of the most beautiful and amazing people on earth. Not only that, I have learned that I didn’t have to be tied down to my job and that I didn’t need to be rich to travel. A a result, after 4 years of living and working in Australia I have decided to quit my job and travel the world :-D

I'm a respectful, layback and easygoing person. I enjoy good company, interesting conversation, bailar and different kind of sports. I value life, and always look toward the future with a positive attitude.

"Life is too short so do what you love and love what you"
"Yolo"
"No regrets"
"Live life to the fullest"
"love and fall in love"
"Living on the edge"
"be kind and be positive"
