CURRENT MISSION Don't save anything for the swim back! ABOUT ME I'm having a Derek Zoolander moment "Who am I?" Hopefully not a Merman! I was born and bred in Adelaide but have been fortunate to travel from an early age largely due to my parents own passion for travelling, experiencing other cultures and meeting great people along the way. I work for an Australian agribusiness in the insurance division and quite like my job. This is mainly due to the awsome people I work with and the great people I meet travelling around country Australia. I won't bore you with any more details as I know a fair percentage of you had already nodded off when you saw the word Insurance! I look forward to meeting up with and getting to know many of you in the future whether it be your couch or mine!
