CURRENT MISSION

To traipse across Northern Europe for a while, making new friends and staying well off the beaten track.

ABOUT ME

I'd like to say I have a good sense of humour, but that always comes across as wanky. I crack myself up, at least.

I have a knack for making friends quickly. Way I see it, everyone has an interesting story to tell and I want to find out what it is.

PHILOSOPHY

Be awesome to each other.

Interests

Writing. I've worked in the media for more than four years now.
I have a burgeoning interest in boxing and MMA - doing it, not watching the sport.
Weightlifting and exercise.
Amateur photographer.
Even more amateur guitarist.
I can make a mean cocktail.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The Sistine Chapel was mind blowing. To see it in its entirety was stunning.

Drinking in the back alleys of Sigatoka in Fiji with the locals and getting rowdy until the wee hours was one of the best times I've had in recent years.

And a quiet moment in the sun in on a spring afternoon near Jervis Bay, NSW, with an old friend watching dolphins play in the shallows only metres away was pretty incredible.

Teach, Learn, Share

Having worked in publishing for four years, I have pretty rad English skills.

If you want to practice your English, especially the grammar side of things, I'm more than happy to help.

I'm also pretty damned good at news writing, so anyone wanting some insight into journalism, holla at me.
