About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Travel, see, do, work, learn, write.

ABOUT ME

I was born in the Australian country, kind of close to the Australian version of the alps... which means they are about 1/8th of the size of the real things...
I have since lived in Sydney, Armidale, Brisbane, Byron, Kyogle and Jindabyne...
I am a bit of a nomad and don't really stay in one place for too long...
I also am a nomad due to the fact that I am a Ski Instructor and about to do my first European Ski season... Working the seasons makes static locations impossible...

PHILOSOPHY

I live my life to work out what makes people work... I began university with a Ba in Biomedical Science, but realised I did not really want to be a doctor toward the end of my second year...
I then changed to a Ba of Journalism with a major in Creative Writing... I think it is doing this that taught me I really was interested in what went on inside people... Their philosophy, their reactions, a more general philosophy, cultural trends etc...
Writing and interviewing is a great vehichle for tapping into this...
Now I am just travelling and learning...

Music, Movies, and Books

Hmmm... This is always so hard this question... It changes so often... and it is really a very involved question...
I love Joyce' short stories, have been a fan of Tolkien since I was 7, I enjoy so many books,
enjoy good sounds from classical to jazz to indie,
and for movies I think I like cartoons the best... anime and other seemingly childish things... but I prefer to read...
