About Me

Hmmm, pitch yourself to others, always fun! here goes anyways....

I'm outgoing and have a sense for adventure!
I've currently quit my job to take this trip see where life takes me :)

Easy-going, open minded. I've travelled heaps, but believe there's always more to discover and despite what the media portrays, I believe most people in the world are friends you simply haven't met yet.

Being Aussie, I love the ocean! whether it's just chilling at the beach, taking the surfboard out, or diving. I generally enjoy the outdoors and being in nature- camping, hiking, 4-wheel driving and a little bit of climbing.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Mainly to meet local people and make new friends wherever I travel and hopefully get to know places better through my hosts...

I also hope to return the favour sometime in the future and host those how have hosted me. Perth is pretty chilled, sunny, beach-side city! :)

I'm not really into the hook-up scene that seems to have infiltrated couch surfing these days- guys & gals, head over to tinder if that's what you're looking for ;)

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies: Anything that wasn't produced just for the sake of producing or making $$$'s. Give me a good story-line, perhaps enlighten me on a subject, or blow my mind with some amazing acting by an unknown actor!

TV: Have been bulk-consuming Vikings and Queen of The South recently.

Music: Generally a Rock or Grunge sort of guy, but I do enjoy all types. I'd rattle off names of bands, but most of the are Aussie and you most likely wouldn't have heard of them... lets save the Spotify tour for when we catch up :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Driven a classic '73 Ford Falcon North to South the entire length of the Andes.... Oh yeah and finished it off hiking a few months in Patagonia- Amazing!!

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm a mechaninc by trade, so am pretty handy with fixing things and solving logical problems.
Consider my self a reasonable cook- I make a pretty good potato gnocchi!
Open to doing language sharing for anyone wanting to improve their English (and vice-versa for Spanish).

What I Can Share with Hosts

My bright and bubbly personality and positive outlook on life..
Plenty of travel stories that'll make you laugh and inspire you :)
I'm not bad in the kitchen and enjoy cooking, so some (hopefully) good food may be in the mix.
