CURRENT MISSION

to see as much of this damn planet as humanly possible.

ABOUT ME

We're an Irish/Italian couple currently working our way around the world. We're currently in Australia but have plans to head to Asia sometime in April 2011.
We like to meet new people, see new places and try new beers and sample different couches from around the world.

PHILOSOPHY

We're not here for a long time, just a good time.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

We're relatively new to the game. We found out about the site through a friend. We helped him entertain travelers that would end up on our side of Italy. Always met nice people and had good times.

Interests

Whittling and pondering. If possible doing both at the same time.
