About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Taking the less road travelled, aka be different/ adventurous; maybe be Jack Kerouac at times

ABOUT ME

Errr after 10 years of travelling, I guess you could say it plays a big part of my life. Originally from sunny Sydney, Australia but now based in not so sunny Berlin, Germany studying for a masters.

So after 10 years I've figured that I enjoy meeting new people, keeping an open-mind and somehow stumble myself into something completely absurd, bizarre and downright silly....

Hopefully, if you've managed to reach to this point and can relate with some of my experiences, though brief as it is, maybe we can inspire each other with some our stories.

PHILOSOPHY

“Stay committed to your decisions, but stay flexible in your approach.”

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Hmmm good question....

In general I've been couchsurfing more than hosting over the years as I've spent a lot being on the road. But now that I'm in Berlin for the next 2 years I think I can finally start to host 1 or 2 couchsurfers at a time.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Couchsurfed since 2009 and have lived with a lot of different people since then.
Hospitality of strangers has and always will be one of the more humbling experiences that one can experience in his/her life.
Hope I can return the favour.
