I’m a writer from a small-ish town in Australia, though I have now been bouncing around the United States for about a decade.

My first book is The Guest: A Backroads Journey by Bicycle, about a year-long bike ride from Canada to El Salvador.

I started my career as a travel and culture writer. You can find a sampling of my work from that time on the Published Work page and over on my Substack blog.

I also write fiction. Find links to examples on the Published Work page .

The best place to stay in touch is via my Substack, which I update regularly.
