  • Description

    I'm looking to travel the world and find a change of direction for my life, hopefully this is a good starting point.

    I get happiness from making new friends, having new experiences, being outdoors and anything with adrenaline. Some of my favourite hobbies include: surfing, whitewater kayaking, climbing, wakeboarding and mountain biking to name a few

    A nerd at heart, I have a deep passion for science and learning as well as my outdoor pursuits. If you were to catch me listening to music it would be so varied, from Brass, Indie Rock, Drum & Bass and a variety of genres, I'm sure we'd find something in common!
