Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Have travelled and stayed on couches... its my turn to return the favour..
ABOUT ME
I am a fun loving interesting person who is passionate about music, culture, environmental issues. I also love cooking and meeting new people. Once i start learning about something it often consumes me untill i have squeezed as much knowledge into my head as humanly possible. I love long crazy conversations over a bottle of red wine, i love playing guitar and singing. I have travelled around south and central america/canada and also had a stint in NZ.. most amazing experience of my life so far
PHILOSOPHY
I think life is too short to not make rash life changing decisions. My holiday was a spur of the moment thing and it was worth every cent. Travelling is the greatest thing anyone can do. It feeds the soul and opens your eyes. I cant wait till im at the airport with ticket in hand setting off on another adventure. Life is too short to stay in the one place. So many people, so many stories and so many lessons to learn out there..
