Description

Hey there,

I'm Andrew - I grew up on a large hobby farm in Canada to Danish and South African parents... and then we moved to Australia when I was 12.

I'm looking to travel to move at a slower pace... to expose myself to new environments that I wouldn't otherwise see... and to have more free time (as opposed to full time work) to play with my creativity... While taking some time out of the big smoke that has been largely home for me this last decade (Sydney).

I'm a super laid back dude, highly introspective but also really enjoy connecting with people. Nature is really important to me and trees have been perhaps one of my greatest teachers.

I love a good chat around the campfire... I'm a storyteller/marketer by trade, but in my free time you will often find me working on my poetry, long form reflections, or perhaps even learning the didgeridoo.

I've travelled to: South Africa, Uganda, India, NZ, Denmark, Caribbean, Indonesia. And around Australia extensively, with only Tassie, WA and the Kimberely yet to tick off. Very grateful to call this land home :)
