About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Experience, Learn, Enjoy Life.

ABOUT ME

24 year old from Australia looking to see the world, meet new people, expose myself to new ideas, explore, push boundaries, learn.
I've left my job and have been travelling since September last year, South East Asia, Europe, Mexico, and now the US.

My friends would usually describe me as open minded, level headed, good sense of humour, and reliable. I can be a touch eccentric though, with grandiose ideas of motorcycling across continents, living in airships, etc etc. I enjoy great adventures as well as more everyday things.. music, art, science, meeting new people and sharing stories.

PHILOSOPHY

To treat others as you would like to be treated and hopefully the rest sorts itself out.
Be humble, for you are made of dirt; be noble, for you are made of stars.
