Away from the keyboard

I'd rather be outside. Most weekends that means a trail somewhere south east of Melbourne.

  • Hiking

    Love trails around the Peninsula and Wilson's Prom.

  • Travel

    I have had the opportunity to travel a few countries around the world. The different cultures and history intrigue me.

  • Sport

    Actively playing in community club cricket in Melbourne. Love following F1 and Soccer.
