🌏 ABOUT ME
G'Day, I'm Aussie Mike! I'm originally from Australia but I relocated to the United States in 2018, dragging my family along for the ride too. Whilst Australia will always be my home, I love living in the southern United States and have always felt like Nashville Tennessee was my home! I do miss the beach though 🏄

FDU2DS is about my journey, my experiences and comparisons between the two countries that I love. It is not meant to offend any person or culture, much of it is lighthearted and stat based too.
