By the time he turned eighteen and graduated from high school, Travis Fimmel played Aussie Rules Football for St. Kilda, but before the season began an injury forced him to sideline those plans. Travis Fimmel then enrolled in RMIT in Melbourne studying commercial architecture and engineering. Travis Fimmel stayed for one year but was again growing restless and decided to join a friend who was going overseas to London. The young adventurer had planned to see some of the world and return to his home intending to enroll in university and play football again. Those plans would never materialize as Travis Fimmel decided he wanted to become an actor. Travis Fimmel returned to Australia for a short time and decided to move to Los Angeles.
