About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To experience the world and grow as a person

ABOUT ME

Hi, I'm a fun loving, down to earth Australian who will arrive at your door with a smile on my face. I grew up in a small coastal city called warrnambool but have been living in Melbourne for the last 2 and a half years. I'm studying Engineering at University but have taken some time off to travel and experience the world. I love music, football, snowboarding and travelling and meeting new and interesting people. I'm inquisitive. I'll want to hear all the knowledge you have. The history of your city or what you studied/work as. I enjoy having a drink. Whether that's a couple of pints at a bar, going out for a massive night of partying or sharing a bottle of wine over dinner and having a quiet night in. If you decide to take me into your abode I'll make sure to be polite, clean up and make sure that I leave your place as i found it. I'm looking forward to meeting you and I'm sure I'll be enjoyable and we'll have a good time together.

PHILOSOPHY

I believe in treating people in how you want to be treated. I believe in accepting everyone for who they are. I believe in freedom, whether that is freedom from an oppressive state, freedom for gay marriage or just freedom to speak your mind.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The trip I'm currently on is so far the most amazing thing I've ever done. I've met so many interesting people and had so many fun experiences. I've already grown as a person and I'm only just beginning.
Another amazing experience was attending a 4 day music festival in Australia (Splendour in the grass). It was in Queensland and I and 3 of my best friends took a car and drove the 1900km up the coast of Australia. We took our time and stopped at a few cities on our way up and attended an amazing festival but the experiences we shared and the strengthening of our friendship was what i enjoyed the most.
