CURRENT MISSION

To have fun while I can

ABOUT ME

I'm a pretty laid-back character who loves a drink in good company and is always up for an adventure. Seriously, if you have something in mind, just ask - I'll probably say yes.

PHILOSOPHY

Make sure you lead a rich and varied life.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

By offering my couch to the world, and bringing cheer to others who do the same.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've hosted plenty of people at home in Australia, and have been fortunate enough to experience the hospitality of many more around the world.

Interests

I used to be a music journalist, so unsurprisingly music and writing both rank highly among the things I'm passionate about. I'll also add travel to the list along with hiking, which is why I've decided to become a travel writer. Makes sense, right?

• writing
• beer

Music, Movies, and Books

Too many to list, but a few randomly chosen favourites in each category include Eternal Sunshine Of A Spotless Mind, Cinema Paradiso, Blood Simple, The Dollars Trilogy and Deep Cover; Bright Eyes, Alela Diane, Mariem Hassan, Endless Boogie, Karen Dalton, Fela Kuti and Nas; Steinbeck, Dostoyevsky, Nelson Algren, Wodehouse and Martin Cruz Smith

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Swimming in the Euphrates at sunrise is a pretty damn memorable experience.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you a few sea shanties and talk endlessly about the places I've lived and travelled. I'm always learning and haven't satisfied my curiosity yet, so I can't wait to find out what's next. And sharing a conversation with good people over a meal and a few drinks is hard to beat.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Many, many stories and late nights, plus some pretty delicious meals.
