About Me

Im an adventurous, smiley, fun-loving type who is super easy going and very social.
Having grown up in rural Tasmania I'm most happy when im in the outdoors climbing, surfing or kayaking. Im always up for getting out and doing something or experiencing new things over lazing around at home. I'll pretty much try anything once, so if you have room for me on an adventure or outing of any description I'll be on board.

All that said I can be happy anywhere if im around friendly, happy folks. I find I can get along with almost anyone, and i love having conversations with a broad range of people regardless of our similarities or differences.

Ive been travelling a lot recently, and unfortunately havent been in a situation where i'm able to host prior to this. Please dont be put off - im a generous person and help out travellers whenever I can.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love hanging out with locals when I'm travelling, and i look forward to hosting when I have a place back in Tassie

Interests

Of all the things Im into, trad climbing has become my number one passion in the last couple of years. Im currently travelling the US and Canada for 8 months, with climbing as the main focus. Its my first time on this continent though, so Im also checking out a heap of more touristy stuff.
