ABOUT ME

Easy going, interested, adventurous and planning a 2015 September trip to the Deep South US of A with my good pal Kate. We are keen as beans for live music from Gospel to blue grass, great food, eccentric local personalities, natural wonder, cultural history... And all that other stuff you know coz your a local and we don't have a clue about!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've done a lot of wandering about the globe and have always enjoyed most the randomn, unplanned authentic local experiences. I want to know what it feels like to be a resident where you live and to get a sense of what you and your friends get up to.

At the moment my living situation doesn't permit the surfing of couches, but I can't wait for that to change!

Interests

I enjoy many things and learning about many others. These include exploration of this mind-boggling world (obviously), and dreaming about the next time of exploration! But I also make the most of every moment in beautiful Melbourne where I currently reside, checking out gigs, markets, exhibitions, lectures, the beach, sports, etc etc! I enjoy a good chin-wag about most topics and am a tidy, friendly and grateful guest!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I was first of 2000 ppl through the dates of Machu Picchu 100 yrs after it was re-discovered. Seeing that eerie, misty magnificence laid out before me, free from all ppl for a few minutes was totally breathtaking and transportive.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Vegemite? Tim Tams? Place your orders! Good banter, for sure. The AUSLAN alphabet if you care to know it. Whatever you want really within reason, I aim to please!
