CURRENT MISSION

i dont want to miss out on anything. my travelling shoes have been gathering dust for a long time.

ABOUT ME

ive allways wanted to know how and why. ive probably been a bit hard on my brain and body since i set few limits. i used to be shy but travelling the world on my motorcycle gave me confidence, then i ran with the ball. i married in my late twenties, its been a success. i have 3 kids and something must have went right cause nobody wants to leave home. ive been a millwright all my life and grow cattle and timber. i try to look for the beauty in humanity.

PHILOSOPHY

im definitely here for a good time. yet responsibility always rears its ugly face. i want to leave the world a bit better than i found it.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

when i travelled most of my stays were in youth hostels, but while in australia a traffic accident resulted in a stay on a big cattle station living in a small shack without power or amenities. i loved it. stayed a month.

Interests

where i live there are few restrictions on weapons. i like to shoot and fish for salmon. i also enjoy harvesting timber with my heavy equiptment. a few drinks with my friends in my rural neighborhood rates high on my list.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
