I'm born and raised in country Victoria about 2.5 hours east of Melbourne in a small dairy town called Maffra. I'm fascinated by history, culture, coffee, beer, markets, music (new and old and everything in between), street life, city life, country life and, without a doubt, people.

I've tried my hand at more than a few sports including tennis, AFL, rock climbing and snowboarding among others. I've lived in Sweden and Malaysia and have been working since the young age of 10 when I was a wee lad running the local paper round.

Things I reckon I'm good at; convincing people that Melbourne is better the rest of Australia, card games, eating food, navigating by the sun, fixing things and taking the piss out of my self.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

I truly enjoy helping like-minded people and showing people why Australia is one of the most beautiful countries and remote countries on Earth.

Intereses

I'm a pretty keen rock climber and definitely someone you could class as an outdoors man. I'm a bit of a fiend for the Melbourne's events calendar. Love the occasional cold beer, kick of the footy and always up for a game of chess or back gammon.

Enseña, aprende, comparte

I love conversation- genuine conversation, where the aim isn't simply time filling, but making a connection through shared experience.
