CURRENT MISSION

is to see as much of the world as possible, experience new cultures, meet new people and hopefully make a few life time friends along the way. Just to enjoy the simple pleasures in life, good food, good company, a story or two to share.

ABOUT ME

I love trying new things, going new places, meeting new people, tasting good food. Love to explore new destinations and experience new cultures. I want to see everything and do everything other than when my fears kick in. Therefore, roller coasters and diving out of planes are out of the question and also when seaweed attacks while your swimming :)

PHILOSOPHY

Have a few little mottoes I use to keep a little harmony in life... everything in life is an experience and although its the longest thing any of us will ever do its also the shortest so embrace it, that with the right attitude anything is possible.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

At present I'm using CS to rest my head and meet new people, given I've been travelling for the last 5 months and no plan to go home just yet. But when its possible and my turn I'll repay the favour to follow travelers.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Been on the CS scene a short time now and have had the best experiences, met lovely people, learned new things and have had a lot of laughs. Bring on some more of that please.

Interests

I really enjoy cooking especially the cuisines of the world and really enjoy baking, whether the cake rises or not. Fine wine, cheese and range of cold meats with crackers are the best. Love to curl up with a good book or movie and if you throw in a fire and some down pour rain, I'm as happy as a pig in shite.

Music, Movies, and Books

Total movie lover, any genre goes. You can be assured that if I haven't seen it, I want to see it. But some of my favourites are Pride and Prejudice, Love Actually, The Shawshank Redemption, Beauty and the Beast, Avatar and that's just to name a few. Music not my strong point. Know what I like but couldn't tell you, I just sing along when it comes on and by sing I mean oohh and hmm along because most likely I don't know the words.. Kinda into older music though really. Books anything goes there too.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have seen I think its at least two wonders of the world now, Angkor Wat and the other was the Great Wall of China. Which I climbed every last dodgy step in -2 degrees but I completed it and it was a very proud moment for me, were at the top I celebrated with a can of beer that froze the minute I open it. I kid you not.
