About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to see as much of the world as I can, and one day own a teacup pig.

ABOUT ME

I'm pretty easy going. Always up for meeting travellers. They seem to know more about my own city than I do. I'm a plumber in Australia. Just started my own business, but I'm looking forward to travelling again soon.

I like to try learning languages. I have an ever growing collection of silly phrases in multiple languages. Some of my favourite phrases are:
Du bist eine Dummer Keks
Mein Bart ist Feucht
Ich glaube du bist ausgeflippt und ich mag dich sehr.
Ou est la piscine?

PHILOSOPHY

Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Can't host at the moment. I live too far away from the city center and work long hours.

Music, Movies, and Books

Seven Pounds, Fight Club, The Dark Knight,

My taste in music is quite varied. At the moment I'm listening to a lot of Kimbra, Rise Against, Twelve Foot Ninja, Marina and the Diamonds, the xx, and Bring Me The Horizon.

I don't read many Novels. Non fiction stuff when I do.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

7 Days at Oktoberfest 2013
Finding 1 Euro Cocktails at a bar in Vienna... that's a big deal...
Mosquito Hostel in Krakow set me up as the groom in a mock Polish wedding with a girl I'd never met as an elaborate way to distribute free Vodka to guests.

I realise these are all alcohol related... I regret nothing.

Teach, Learn, Share

I read a book about improving my memory and now I can recall the entire periodic table in order.

...I still forget peoples names almost instantly though.

Countries I’ve Visited

Australia, Austria, France, Germany, Italy, Switzerland, Thailand
