About Me

I like to explore, be free and relax. I am a very friendly, easygoing, laidback guy who really enjoys meeting new people and traveling to new places. I enjoy helping and smiling at people I don't know. Smiles travel from one person to the next so spread the smile :)

I became a qualified plumber in 2012 and have been on and off traveling since. I spent 3 months in Australia, 12 months in Canada where I met a beautiful Quebec girl called Daphnee. Since Canada me and Daphnee have been together cycling from England to Spain, traveled Sri Lanka, Thailand and now Australia again.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Watched the Yukon river brake at Dawson. The frozen over river broke and I was there to watch it happen, all the ice slowly flowed down stream and crumbled up into smaller chunks. This was a big moment for the town as the river is the only way of getting to west Dawson. In the winter there is an ice bridge and in the summer you can go across on the ferry but for about a month there is nothing as the ice is to thin to cross.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love showing and teaching people poi. Its lots of fun for all ages. If you are interested I would love to show you. The LED pair are nice to play with as they light up in the dark and if the time and place is right I also have some fire Poies. No messing around with fire though as you can get hurt.

I have always been a bit of a handyman so I might be able to help or point you in the right direction if you have any problems or need things fixing in your home.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Share ideas, stories, pictures, poi and even a little music on my Ukulele :)
