About Me

Finished university last year and couldn't find a job so i decided i'd travel the world for a bit.

Currently living in Vancouver but nothing permanent. Trying some ski seasons in Canada for the moment but travelling the world in between seasons.

I want to see the world and meet some people in the process, I love to see new things, want to get a couple of experiences under my belt before i start a career with my degree.

Happy to host once I get a more permanent life plan.

Interests

I play guitar and sing, I love nearly all kinds of music except for a large proportion of what is 'popular'

Science, Technology, Technical work are my favourite things to talk about but I can literally have a conversation with anyone about anything (provided they're open minded)

Love good beer. Comes with Engineering. I suppose

I will watch any sport (mostly) but I will adamantly follow none

Music, Movies, and Books

Music is wonderful. I love to play accoustic guitar and sing for people, however since I left Australia I've not been able to do so very much.

My favourite artist is Avenged Sevenfold and when I was 15 this was entirely the type of music i listened too. Since then I've opened my mind and will listen to anything from Hardcore to Rap to Dubstep to EDM

Love movies and especially a good t.v show. Breaking Bad, Game of Thrones, Daredevil, Vikings, Rick and Morty and for movies i tend to stick with critically acclaimed.

Books I don't read as often as I should but travelling is as good a time as any to get some reading done. Most reading i do is research.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I have lots to share. It's hard to single it all down into a short paragraph.

I am a very intelligent man, even if i don't necessarily look it. Most of what I have to offer is a perspective, a really amazing chat, a drink and a new lifelong friend and finally, especially, hospitality to anyone or any travellers who ever need some a couch in the future.

If you have a guitar then I promise to play you a song!

In short:
I will share whatever I possibly can as a thanks for any hospitality
