CURRENT MISSION

To explore the world and myself within it

ABOUT ME

I've been living in Aarhus, Denmark for the past 3 months, studying the 2nd last semester of my 4yr Social Work degree.

I am relaxed, cheerful and honest and like low-key partying, i.e. a few beers or wines and if lucky enough a couple of joints but definitely always with good music and conversation :) Lefty politically, can talk/teach plenty on Australian history/politics if interested and not if not.

PHILOSOPHY

Change is the only constant
Peace out
Question everything
Be real
