About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Im currently filming a documentary web series of my travels. I started late November in 2015 and originally i planned to travel from Indonesia to Mongolia, but i took a side trip to Europe and now I'm heading up through Scandinavia to capture some of the incredible experiences to be had. Asia can wait.

ABOUT ME

We all want the most out of this life. For me, that means travelling into the unknown to see incredible things, to meet people and hear their stories. Ultimately i want to constantly challenge myself to step out of my comfort zone. This is where we learn and grow!

PHILOSOPHY
Live life like your writing the main character in a book you would want to read.
