Washed up in Austria, like a piece of floatsam on the foreshore. Waiting for seasons to pass before I find my direction, vocation and passion.

In the meantime, I have found myself living in an ecovilliage/community/co-operative housing project outside of Graz. I moved here from the UK in October 2019. For now I make fresh bread and pizza and teach kids English in the local primary school to get by.

I was travelling in a van before settling in Austria. I also love to make long distance bike rides, I've cycled a lot across Europe and am also on the warmshowers platform.
