About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To organise every M and M in every bag, in alphabetical order around the world... And possibly the universe!

ABOUT ME

Hello. My name is Aaron. I am 25 years old. I love to keep fit by either running, playing various sports or doing weights.

I enjoy the occasional night out on the town but I try not to have too many.

I'm quite strict with my diet when I'm not travelling and love cooking.

I think I'm a pretty easy going guy who is very easy to get along with and treat people the way I'd like to be treated.

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask.

I also use Facebook. Here is a link to my profile:

PHILOSOPHY

"Using no way as a way, using no limitations as limitation"

I beleive that you should treat people the way you like to be treated.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Well, I was introduced to couch surfing by my housemate and have met alot of really good couch surfers who I still keep in touch with.

If you want some info about Cairns, go to www.travelbeats.com.au... there's heaps of music info, travelling ideas, tours and hotels.

I like to help out travellers, whether it be a place to stay (if I can), a drink and chat, or take them to a spot only the locals would go.

I know what it's like to travel, and to recieve great hospitality from people you barely know. My only hope is that one day when i come to your country, you can take me out, show me around or even host me too! :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Chatting to new found friends, on top of a beautiful waterfall near my house, about different countries perspectives of life and the world... Then cliff jumping off it together!
