About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Stay on the open road to see where it takes me!

ABOUT ME

I've caught the travelling bug but never go anywhere without my guitar in hand. I'm open minded and love meeting new people and seeing new places.

I Graduated in Exeter university in England and worked in the wine trade for a year and a half. Went to summercamp in NY in America before heading to Fiji and 9 months in New Zealand travelling and working. I then spent 2 months in SE Asia before arriving in Darwin! I've road-tripped through Queensland and now I've just finished in Tazmania picking apples.

PHILOSOPHY

I'm a bit of a lost soul travelling with no real purpose except to have fun and make new friends, meet new people and never be stuck in a bubble again, always be open-minded and never be scared to do something new.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Mountain-biking, especially downhill mountain biking is one of those things that you cant describe to someone, youhave to experience it. downhill mountianbiking in the French alsps in Chamonix has been a real highlight for me - you take the ski-lifts to the top of the mountain and scream downhill for 20+ minutes until your body cramps up but the ardrenaline pumps and nothing beats that feeling when you finish an amazing downhill run!

Teach, Learn, Share

Road trips are the way forward. whenever I travel anywhere I always try to share rides with new people and it can work out to be amazing!
