G'day,

I'm Miles. I'm heading over to the US to hopefully se

CURRENT MISSION

To explore, both self and world.

ABOUT ME

28/03/11. Right now I am sitting at my desk in New Delhi, India trying to grasp how fortunate I am.

Currently I'm completing an internship with the UN which ends in a matter of weeks. Following this my mother who doubles as the ultimate wingman (as she only ever sings my praises and comments on how i'm a "handsome young man" - certainly bias) will arrive and we'll pretty much have the best damned time ever!

After this I go to Nepal, go nude treking then precede to go home to Sydney. My time in Sydney will be short lived as I have to head to the States in August to finish my masters at NC State.

That's my life's roadmap at the moment - as you can gather, I am indeed rather fortunate and by jove! I don't take it for granted.

If you'd like need as quick overview of me, here it is:

• In yr 5 when I was 10 I bribed a judge for the schools Yo-Yo competition with a delicious chicken schnitzel sandwich that my mum had made me

• In year 5 I won the school Yo-Yo competition

• I LOVE my family very much including my father although he has a moustache.

• My dad once paid 6 dollars for a haircut, it was as if the hands of destiny had crafted it to be the shittest haircut of all time, the end.

Be well

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've swam nude in heaps of places including in the main fountain at Paris Hotel on the Vegas strip.

Teach, Learn, Share

Personally I'd like to think any interaction with another person, albeit the smallest of exchanges, will somehow be somewhat enriching.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Ideally I'd like to be able to offer my host some rich conversation, several cooked meals and even some dance lessons*.

* Note: I have two left feet.
