About Me

CURRENT MISSION

At the beginning of the year I quit my job as did my girlfriend and we started traveling, NZ, Indonesia and India, the best thing I have done for a while.
Highlight.. Riding a Royal Enfield thru the Himalayas in India for 2 months. Total Freedom!
Next up... USA!

ABOUT ME

Im pretty easy going, my place is in the outdoors. I love mountain biking, actually anything to do with bikes, I like to fix them too.
I have worked as a MTB Trail Builder for the last 4 years, working in Aussie, Canada and New Zealand.
I took a break at the start of the year to go traveling with my girlfriend. A good time to reassess what is important in life.. ie. work less, travel more!

No time for TV!
I like to go with the flow, not letting anything worry me.

PHILOSOPHY

He knows not where he's going, the ocean will decide, its not the destination its the glory of the ride!

Define yourself by what you love, and you will never work a day in your life.

Music, Movies, and Books

On my travels in India I read Shantaram, a book about a fugitive who escaped to India and lived in the slums and worked for the mafia.. very exciting and extremely descriptive book. A must read.

Bass music, folk music, rock n roll, drum n bass, I like to boogie :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I spent a year working in beautiful BC rainforest, building bike trails, really pushing the limits of physical endurance, but also having a bloody good time and causing shenanigans !!

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you how to make sun hats from coconut leaves! It takes about 2 hours. They are extremely cool and get loads of attention from strangers. A great ice breaker.

India, Indonesia, Ireland, Malaysia, Netherlands, Portugal, United States
