ABOUT ME

Travel is my main focus. I've spent the majority of my adult life backpacking or living in new places. I love a walk, whether a short wander around town or a long distance trek. I love a laugh, good company, strong coffee, cold beer, learning about peoples' lives and loves, a good story, a long journey, new tunes and pretty words. I am laid-back; please feel free to relax.
