CURRENT MISSION

To corrupt other travellers, as has been done to me!

ABOUT ME

Hey folks, I'm Ben. Me and my (now pregnant) Italian wife Sabina live in a beautiful village on the sea. I like to do anything stupid, and my wife spends here time trying to keep me alive. We have found some sort of equilibrium there.

EDIT: Living in Brisbane for about 5 years now

Given that I am bad about updating my profile, this message will probably still be here when my son/daughter gets married.

EDIT: OK, so my son is 6 years old now, that's how bad I am at updating stuff!

PHILOSOPHY

Act strange, and people won't bother you. Being strange is even easier.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

We've had a lot of couchsurfers at our place, as you can see from my profile. Sadly we have to reject many, just because our couch is very popular...

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Couchsurfed in Tuscanny, and Holland, and that's about it! We hosted much more than we've surfed!

Interests

Music, food, travel, travel, travel, talking bollocks to whoever, walking, and boozing.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: Hard rock, punk, industrial, noise, or anything that's raw and emotional.

Movies: I like movies, especially when lots of people die. Luckily there are many to choose from!

Books: The Fatal Shore, which is fascinating, albeit heavy. Australia was a horrible place 200 years ago!
