CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

Creative type. Movie buff. Interested in everything.

Originally from Australia, I have done lots of travel over the last 5 years. I've been incredibly lucky to meet so many incredible people and be able to make a living from my creative pursuits.

I have just spent the last year living in South America but am now ready to meet some of the fine people of Texas and explore the southern states.

I also make T-shirts (www.youngloverslabel.com)

Enough about me. I want to find out about you!
