CURRENT MISSION

Hello world :) I’m Ash. 31 year old male. Long time traveller- although I’ve been back in Australia for the last 5 years- thought I’d give the stable life a go. It was beautiful, ran my own business, was part of a beautiful community, allowed the space for other aspects of me to flourish, though it wasn’t long before the road was calling me again. So here I am, out in the world again. Slow travelling. Seeking the soul of places. Looking to stay put in places, find work, meet community, create together.
Hope to meet you on the way!

ABOUT ME

I’m a guy that lovesss connecting, and creating. I’m a builder be trade- I build houses- renovate and refurbish old houses, design and build natural houses. Passionate about grass-roots and community projects. On the side I do some bodywork. I love touch. It’s medicine. I occasionally do treatments, coming into a time of my life where I want to pursue this more.
I play music- not great at it, but I love it and get by!
My life revolves around the ocean. I love it, I dive, surf, and just love floating in it, surrendering to the ocean.
I’m very aware of myself, my spaces, and am very conscious of others- aware and attuned to energies.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I consider myself a seasoned traveller- but I’ve never actually used this platform!! I guess I’ve always been pretty rouge- sleeping wherever I find myself that night, hha.
So here I am, currently moving slowly through Europe, and singing up to couch surfing!

音乐、电影和书籍

Literature, cinema and music are a big part of my life. I love good cinema- finding obscure world films, stories from small corners of the world, we all have a story.
Whenever I’m in a new place- part of meeting the soul of a place, for me, is in its music and poetry. Currently in Turkey, discovering a lot beautiful folk music and reading Turkish poetry.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

I moved to Nepal after the earthquake and lived in the Himalayas for 3.5 years, re building homes and living a simple life in the mountains.

教，学，和分享

What can I teach??? We’ll, I’ve run many community based projects revolving around building. I beileve I’m a good teacher in this regards.

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

Oh so much!! Depends what we align on. Watch some good cinema? Connect through music? Cooking amazing food, going for a surf, doing a workout together. Or maybe just a good conversation?
Can exchange a bodywork treatment of it alligns
Or perhaps- we both recognise that we value our own space and just share a space peacefully ??! Whatever it is, we’ll figure it out.
