ABOUT ME

Hey. My name is Anders but im not from Scandinavia. I guess my mother thought it was a cool name :)

I am just about to graduate and have no idea what i want to do in life. So im going travelling for a year.

First stop: 3000km walk across New Zealand for 6 months along the Te Araroa track and visiting family

Next: Jump over to Sydney and work my way up the Gold Coast all the way to Darwin. From there i want to talk my way onto a boat and sail to Thailand, or Indonesia and then island hop my way to Thailand...either way i dont mind.

Next: Chill in Thailand for a while and explore the surrounding area: Laos, Cambodia etc followed by one month of Muay Thai near Hua Hin.

Then...who knows...
