Live each day one day at a time, and spread a little bit of happiness in the lives of everyone I meet.

I'm a down-to-earth Australian doctor who just loves travelling. I'm always keen to broaden my horizons. I'm a pretty relaxed travel companion (I think!), happy to do my own thing or just go with the flow... as long as there's a good meal at the end of the road.

I love discovering new places, eating new things, listening to new music, attempting new languages, learning about different cultures, exploring historical sites, and am always keen for a good chat. I'm not much of a party animal anymore, but I love heading out for a couple of beers or a few glasses of wine.

I look forward to meet you in person and sharing a few travel stories! :)

PHILOSOPHY

Treat every moment as if it could be your last, live without regrets, treat everyone like you would yourself, love like you've never been hurt. Grow, and be better every day than you were the day before. Follow your heart, wherever it may lead you.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because nothing beats seeing a city through the eyes of a local. And there's nothing better than sharing a travel story to get you motivated to get back out on the road.

Music, Movies, and Books

Man's search for meaning by Viktor Frankl changed my life. Beautiful and poignant.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Diving with a family of manta rays in the Similan islands. Amazing.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love cooking. Happy to share my best creations with you or sample yours over a bottle of wine. If you have a guitar or keyboard, we can trade songs. Always happy to share a travel story, or stories about Australian history and Australian culture. I can teach you how to speak Australian "English" ;)

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm chilled and will happily fit into your routine. If you'd like to hang out, and come with me on some fun adventures, I'm more than happy to do that. If you're busy and just feel kind enough to let me crash on your couch while I explore the city, that works for me too. I've been sharing houses for a long time now, so I won't be crashing my way loudly through your apartment at 4am, and I'm always pretty careful to wash up after myself. Always up for having a beer, grabbing a meal, playing some songs, or having a yarn.
