ABOUT ME

Have lived from the SW to the NW in the US; biked across the country and then lived in the mountains of virginia. moved to beautiful nelson, NZ (slice of heaven), and am now in australia. im still trying to devise a cunning plan on how to best get work to work for me (instead of vice versa). im an open, often ridiculous (so im told) person who loves to meet new people and offer a hand to those in need. I also love fun. And food!! especially new food :)
