About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to explore the world and meet new and fun people along the way

ABOUT ME

Where i grew up for the first part of my life was up in NWT, the northern part of canada. That's where i developed the passion for the outdoors as i was always taken out camping, fishing and snowmobiling on the weekends.
Later, my family and I moved down to the sunny okanagan, in the southern central part of British Columbia. This move helped me grow my passion as the summer was extensively longer down there, i started to bike, hike and swim a lot more.
I really like to keep fit and exploring the land around me where i'm staying at the time. In my down time I like to play several different video usually strategy games or role playing games. I also like to go to the cinema for any kind of film, depends on my mood at the time.
My life at home in canada was great, I just needed to get out into the world and expand the horizon to gain more experiences. My friend and I got together to decide where we would travel to, one of my important criteria was that i wanted to feel what it was like to live one year without ever seeing snow. That being said we chose to go to Australia with a working holiday visa.
I've been allowed to spend two years working and traveling here. On my second trip to tasmania to work on a raspberry farm, I met my girlfriend and now we are traveling together.
After we get back to canada or where ever we settle down i plan on getting more serious into starting my career as a singer in country music. Music, for the longest time has been a deep passion, most likely instilled in me through my dad who was a drummer in several bands in the younger part of his life. Unlike him though i am gonna sing, i've taken classes and participated in singing events.
