About me: 
That's an excellent question at this point. Well, over two years ago, which is hard for me to believe, I graduated from university in English. A little more than two and half years ago if you asked me what I'd be doing post uni, I would have said grad school, stable job, putting down roots, contemplating marriage,that sort of thing. Then I decided to spend a term studying abroad in Australia where for the first time I heard the terms "working holiday" and "round the world trip" and well that whole notion of putting down roots went out the window. Instead I went on my own round the world trip that took a little longer than expected, a year and a half and I'm just back from that adventure. The question on my mind most often is, "What next?"

I taught English,which was good solid work(I did private tutoring,as opposed to working in a school,which for me was better.)Also played music in local venues,such as cafes and night clubs.I've even done some tour guide work in a couple of places.(You would be surprised at how often by doing a little exploring,you can get to know a place better than most of the locals!) Amor y paz.

Queenstown depressed me for many reasons. It was too much like the over-built, over-hyped mountain towns that you find littered throughout the world.

I was young and for whatever reason, expecting a different type of vibe than what I found. It was simply a matter of situation, as I would love to return to check it out today. Instead of meeting core groups of snow-riders, I was finding core groups of line hitters and pill poppers.

I still feel that towns like Whistler, Queenstown and Aspen are excellent examples that if you ever find a beautiful, under-developed spot that is ideal for various activities that you enjoy, you had better not tell anyone about it or it will soon be over-run with the very things that ruin the vibe.

Up next, Revolstoke's new multi billion dollar resort development!

I studied in Birmingham, which was kind of a grundgy city, but I loved it anyway.

England is amazing. Pure and simple.

For several months here I have been so incredibly unsure of what it is I want. I mean in regards to pretty much everything. I spent my last few months in Australia constantly tossing around the idea of coming home early due to things really not going as planned. I'm glad I saw things out and think the...

I've never really written a blog. I've been sort of an anti-blogger. I just get so fed up with seeing people's dramatic self-proclamations splattered all over the internet for so many to see. It appears attention crazed and self-absorbed and too often just way too emotional and personal for just anyone...
