About Me

ABOUT ME

I'm Nick, people say I'm easy-going, so I guess that's a good compliment ;)
Traveller, long distance hiker, generally I take life as it comes.
Definitely no big picture.
Walking is what I most do, my freedom is my all.
I'm open minded, solo and intrepid, I spend a lot of time on my own but do love company, talk about anything and everything.
When I'm not travelling, I live in Nelson, on the south island of New Zealand. I have worked tourism almost my whole life, but I'm taking a break from that at the moment.

PHILOSOPHY

When in doubt - say yes.
