Hello Steamians!!
My name is Mike and that is my gorgeous lady Leah!
I was born in the US, raised in the UK, traveled/worked in Australia and recently moved to Canada! ( Vancouver Island ).
On this wonderful platform, my aim is to INSPIRE, and BE INSPIRED!

I can't wait to start posting and getting feedback on the type of content YOU like most!
Thanks for reading my intro post!! ... Please enjoy this serendipitous
WILD KOALA ENCOUNTER ## - video 1:13
...we made a new friend
Very cool post and nice pics man, I need to take a few notes from you, I've also just posted my intro a few hours ago. I will follow. (:
Thanks Bud! I checked your post out! Honest and to the point! You seem like a good man, and stand up for the right things! Keep fighting the good fight! Followed back :)
I'm also a fan of Terrance! Also R.A.W. and Watts plus the original public enemy#1 Leary. I think we have some similar interests lol.
Haha Really!? Awesome! Oh yes Mr Leary was a fantastic man who witnessed the potential of psychedelics himself and thought, if he laid it at the feet of the people, it would be undeniable and wound transform the world for the better. But unfortunately, there is a leap of faith involved with experiencing psychedelics and there were huge hurdles like, years of false propaganda, legal status and so soon after Nixon made public enemy No1. " DRUGS " - with a massive blanket ban. - Terrible stuff holding back our evolution and spiritual growth with added ability to treat a multitude of disorders... Think I'll have to write up some articles on the subject!
Yes it is one of the topics I wish to write about, let's put out the information so people can know more about it. (:
Welcome! Love reading about your life far. Can't wait to see what new adventures this new year brings you two!
Thank you! @journeyfreedom ! You, sir are an inspiration! 7 kids and still have the balls to quit your job and follow your passion / make a change for a better quality of life! Right On Brother! Looking forward to sharing eachothers experiences!
Interesting introduceyourself post.
I am looking forward to seeing more of your posts.
Beautiful girlfriend btw :)
Thank you! Oh yes, I'm a lucky man!
Hello Mike, Great name :) Fantastic post mate, well written with awesomephotos! Welcome to steemit, will be following!
Hah!..You have a strong bias there Mike :) Thanks! Glad you enjoyed the post. I see you're a truth seeker such as myself. I think it's great to 'find the others' to help create unity in a disillusioned world! I also see you appreciate Alchemy too! Another interest of mine, in practise, literature and also in art. Terence McKenna actually has a very interesting lecture you might enjoy on YouTube about Alchemy and it really is profoundly thought provoking! Followed back :)
Awesome introduction, this looks very promising.
I‘m looking forward to your posts!
Welcome to steemit :)
Have a great time
Thanks bro! I'm looking forward to putting out some (hopefully good quality) content! I hope your injury heals up soon as I'd like to follow your Calisthenics training!

Mike, I'm Oatmeal Joey, and you inspire me through amazing photos, the coolest name, since all the other Mikes I know are cool too, and your soul mate Leah seems to be full of joy. I'm from Oregon and was in Hawaii and Vietnam but have not been to Australia but would love to and maybe someday. I love animals and the idea of creating roadshows. Take care.
Joey!...I love Oatmeal! And my best mate is a Joe! We are oat-brothers now. I would love to see some pictures from your time in Hawaii and Vietnam!...Two of my top places to see! Looking forward to your content bud :)
Yeah. Sure. Will do. And I see you swimming with the ninja turtles. Oh, i love natural remedies and gardens for sure. I love camping and campers. Very cool. i was a wilderness counselor for years. Fun times.
It's a great feeling to really find your soulmate. Congratulations! Take care to all! :)
It sure is! We both found each other after taking a leap of faith to leave our home countries to travel Oz! All the best!

Thanks bud!! Nice to hear! Where are you living?? Leah is drooling over your food pics!!
Hey Mike, it's Mike! Love the photo's especially of the turtle. I find those a lot down in the Florida Keys. I am jealous that you have dove the Great Barrier Reef, that is on my bucketlist. Any specific spots that you would recommend?
Hey MM!! Thanks man, I have family in Florida actually :D You live in a beautiful part of the world! The GBR was fantastic and I dived around Green Island and also in the Whitsundays a little further down the coast Unfortunately coral bleaching has had some impact on the vibrant colour, but for an inexperienced diver such as myself, it was amazing Thinking of uploading a vid of a dive I did with Blacktip sharks soon!
Welcome Mike, Leah, and Diego! Awesome introduction. Sounds like you guys have had some amazing adventure. Looking forward to following along with you guys!
Thanks guys!! Love your brand and looking forward to the content!!

Thanks man! Oh cool!! We miss it and will definitely be back there one day but for now we'll be experiencing the best Canada has to offer! :D We have both been to Amsterdam also (separately) and loved it!
A warm welcome to Steemit to the both of you! Good luck!
Thanks bud! Looking forward to seeing what it has to offer! Interesting article on the short comments aspect of steemit! Well written!
I think for you guys it could offer plenty, but initially the platform requires a fair amount of time and has a reasonable learning curve.
It seems like you have gained plenty of material / experiences in your time on the road and so you certainly wont be short of content.
Good luck guys!
High quality introduction post. Keep up the good work!
Welcome! I'm new to steemit too! Enjoyed your post and pics :)
Thanks bro! Good Luck on here! Holy crap I love your Egypt pics! I LOVE Egypt and their philosophy! Cant wait to go one day! Please do a post about your trip sometime?
Pleased to meet you Mike. We share loads in common and I am happily following your blog and Leah’s too - it is going to be fun getting to know you guys more.
