Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
My current mission statement is the same as it has always been. Enjoy life and avoid boredom. Mostly I succeed in these simple goals.
ABOUT ME
ALL about us in one small box:
2 x easy going individuals.
Our parents love us and our friends think we're alright.
PHILOSOPHY
Philosophy, mission statement, same thing, another one of mine would be not repeating myself. :-D
Oh, and amusing myself.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
My whole aim here is to hopefully help people enjoy my side of Australia in a relaxed, yet active manner.
We've had great experiences in other countries with random strangers helping us and now we are happy opening up our door to travellers and giving them smiling faces to say hello to.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
We have hosted couchsurfers in the past. All of them have been positive and we've enjoyed the chance to meet new people from different areas of the world and having time to get to know them.
We have now also surfed a couple of couches in Canada which thanks to the people involved were both fantastic experiences.
Interests
Camping, fishing, 4WDing, holidaying, exploring, day tripping, snorkelling, gardening, board games, reading, socialising, meeting new people.

Teach, Learn, Share
Teach:
Local knowledge 101:
I've travelled Australia so can teach travellers that Oz can be varied throughout, varse in landscape and climate, subtle in culture and activities.
Practical travel of the European continent:
I've driven Europe and know the legalities of car ownership, insurance and visa requirements for Australians and N.Zers.
The inner workings of my headspace: noone can teach it like I can.
Learn:
Anything great people tell me, I listen, sometimes question. I look forward to hearing it.
