CURRENT MISSION

Currently living and working in Melbourne CBD. I can host one person on my couch from my apartment opposite southern cross station

ABOUT ME

I sold my business in the UK in Oct 2013 and backpacked to Central & South America for 9 months. Now I'm living and working in Melbourne Australia on a one year working holiday visa. I am able to host one person on my couch for a few nights.

Keen to meet people who want to know about Snowboarding as I have been over most of Europe snowboarding for the last 10yrs. But if you dont want me to bore you with my epic snowboarding adventures thats cool too!!

I am an easy going guy that likes to meet new people, have a laugh, drink and experience new cultures, keen to visit the locals "hangouts" not the "touristy" ones. I enjoy talking about world events, music, history, politics (nothing too heavy) but always find humour & common interest with everyone I meet.

PHILOSOPHY

No regrets, live life to the max, dont let work take control. Dont let the chase for money and material gain rule my life. Be happy!
