About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To live, love and learn as much as possible

ABOUT ME

I'm currently spending a year travelling through South America. I have been to Chile, Brazil, Paraguay, Uruguay, Argentina and spent 5 months living in Buenos Aires and now I'm in Medellin Colombia.

I love the culture of South America and in Colombia I hope to continue learning the guitar and to also learn how to Salsa dance.

I especially love live music and interesting cultural events. Bands, DJs, classical music, theatre and dance. Back home in Australia I am a technical event producer so I'm also interested in seeing how venues are set up and would be interested in helping out from a technical point of view for any local musicians or performers.

I love food and wine and I really enjoy cooking and experiencing new and different foods.

I want to experience the local culture of the places I visit not just see the main tourist attractions

Most of all I'm just looking forward to meeting new people and making new friends.

Estoy pasando un año viajando través de Sudamerica. He estado en Chile, Brasil, Paraguay, Uruguay, Argentina y pasó cinco meses viviendo en Buenos Aires y ahora estoy en Medellín Colombia.

Me encanta la cultura de la Sudamérica y en Colombia, espero seguir aprendiendo la guitarra y también aprender a bailar Salsa.

Especialmente me encanta música en vivo y eventos culturales. Bandas, DJs, música clásica, teatro y bailar. En Australia soy un productor de eventos.

Quiero conocer nuevos comidas y bebidas tipica de sudamerica. Yo disfruto cocinando y aprendiendo nuevos recetas.

Quiero vivir la cultura local de los lugares que visito, no sólo ver las principales atracciones turísticas.

Más importante para mi es de conocer nuevas gente y hacer buenos amigos.
