  • Description

    I'm a 30 year old kiwi, currently heading into my 3rd year up here in Europe.

    I'm a lawyer by trade, but realised that there was a lot more to life than sitting in an office and wearing nice suits. So, in 2019 I set off for a few months travel in India, and since then I haven't stopped moving!

    I spent Corona lockdown at a Workaway in Morocco,thru-hiked the NZ 3000km Te Araroa Trail, broke both of my arms learning to snowboard, bikepacked from Innsbruck to Greece and back, and moved to Germany where I ended up managing a restaurant, began running Ultra-marathons, and took up Underwater Rugby (all while doing a little bit of lawyer work on the side!).

    I'm passionate about the outdoors, and in my spare time I enjoy hiking and exploring. I'm also an avid reader, and very social. I'm from a rural background, and I'm always willing to get stuck in and work hard at the job at hand. I'm enthusiastic about other people, new places, and seeing what the world has to offer - as well as offering a bit of myself to the world too.

    I can't wait to meet you...
