Back in Australia after 16 months of backpacking in Europe and central America. It's tough...

I am a reporter for a major news organisation. I've been in Darwin for about a year, but was in the NT for several years before I left to go travelling.

Well I wanted to meet cool people while travelling, and now I'd like to return the favour!

音乐、电影和书籍

I listen to a lot of Australian music. I love Crowded House, the Pigram Brothers, U2, Paul Kelly, The John Butler Trio, Clare Bowditch.

I love seeing jazz and blues live, I play guitar and try to write my own songs sometimes.

I've been reading a lot of classics on this trip - because you can get them for free on a Kindle! Victor Hugo, Jane Austen, Mark Twain and Charles Dickens. But I also like new books when I can afford them - it sucks not having access to library.

As for movies, pretty much anything!

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

A six day hike through the Lapland, in the Arctic Circle in Sweden. The huts I was staying in had wood fired saunas, and I got totally hooked on staying in there as long as I could, then jumping in a rive or lake which was two or three degrees. It's an amazing sensation!

Dog sledding in Norway across frozen rivers!

教，学，和分享

I want to learn languages, how to cook local food and the history of places. I can teach a bit of about Australia, how to play guitar and I'm not a bad cook! I end up talking about politics a fair bit... I bought a ukulele in Sicily, so I can teach you a few chords!
