ABOUT ME

I am Mat,a Bob Dylan loving,history reading,movie watching,hacky sack playing guy from Australia.I am very interested in Psychology and plan to study it at university in the future.I play guitar and love all things music(including movie and stage musicals) and love to share my favorite things with people,and in turn find out other people's passions.I'm always looking to learn new things,whether from other people,or reading which i love.I haven't traveled a whole lot before,but really look forward to going out and experiencing the world for once instead of reading about it.

PHILOSOPHY

"The truth will set you free,but first it will freak you out..and piss you off.."
