CURRENT MISSION

To work out where I'm headed post-Bachelor of Arts

ABOUT ME

I've just finished my final university semester abroad in Amsterdam and am now happily aimless in Europe

Prior to Amsterdam I studied contemporary art for a couple of months in New York City, and prior to that was based studying in my hometown of Melbourne, Australia, soaking up all the lovely things it has to offer.

I'm a very laid back, easy going type. But be warned I'm an absolute sucker for lively discussion about politics, art, music, social problems etc. and I like that in others as well.

PHILOSOPHY

Rise above the shit and enjoy life while you're lucky enough to be living it
