About Me

I love travelling and the outdoors
We love BBQs, relaxing outdoors & camping; spending time at the beach
I have played & and coached many sports and still remain active by running, riding & going to the gym
I work full time and weekends are busy following my kids' pursuit’s & hobbies

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

A good friend of ours have been couch surfing for quite a while now & she often speaks of the amazing people she hosts.
Our kids have moved out of home now, so we have more spare room in the house so thought we'd see how couch surfing goes; & hopefully meet some amazing people & learn from them and their experiences, as well as share our experiences.
I also have considerable travel planned in the near future so hope to expand our range & contacts to assist us with our planned travel

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Travelling & seeing all the natural beauty that the World keeps presenting to me is what continually amazes me.
I walked the entire 16km length of the Xi'an City Wall in China 🇨🇳

I’ve climbed to the very top of Yosemite Falls. 🇺🇸

I hiked the entire Grand Canyon “Bright Angel Trail” 🇺🇸 in under 8hrs. Nearly killed me doing it, but survived to tell the tale 🥵

I’ve hiked the full length of Leaping Tiger Gorge 🇨🇳. All 20km long & 1km+ climb in one day

Teach, Learn, Share

I can host a good ol' Aussie BBQ or just hang at the beach. Take guests to Albany's best experiences or go for a short cruise on my boat (I own a 5m boat) or just veg out & relax listening to music on our enclosed patio.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share stories of our past travelles, or get excited chatting about or next adventure.
I'm a hands on person so can help out around the place or just get active and get out and experience whatever is happening around the place.

Please note our house is a non-smoking house.
