ABOUT ME

I grew up in Australia, traveled around a lot and had crazy adventures, then ended up in Canada where I have lived for 6 years - I'm a permanent resident now - woo hoo! I'm easy going, social and love sharing food and wine with friends and family. Stoked on live music, reading awesome books, snowboarding the winter away, road trips, festivals....

PHILOSOPHY

The plan is to have no plan....
No sudden movements.....
Money is for spending....
I sleep in a drawer - hehe!!
