About Me

After a long absence, I'm getting back in to the swing of things on Couchsurfing, so am slowly updating my profile. It was getting a bit outdated! More info to come, or just ask :)

I'm a winemaker, originally from Adelaide in Australia but currently living in the Macon region in France. I came for a vintage and am now staying for a year, so will see where that road takes me!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I connect with places through the people and the food. With Couchsurfing, I can definitely achieve one, if not both of those things!

Music, Movies, and Books

Pretty much anything as long as it's not generic electro rubbish or heavy metal (though there are always exceptions). A quick scroll through Spotify reveals some regular features: Alabama Shakes, Bon Iver, Daft Punk, Interpol, Jackson Browne, Fleetwood Mac, The National, Tame Impala, The War on Drugs, Wild Nothing. Classical if I'm in the mood.

+ Star Wars

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I'm in the middle of realising a lifetime goal of living and working in France, so that's pretty satisfying.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I love cooking, and food and wine are always better when shared!

Countries I’ve Visited

Belgium, China, Croatia, Czech Republic, France, Germany, Hungary, Italy, Malaysia, Morocco, Netherlands, New Zealand, Poland, Slovakia, Spain, United Kingdom, United States
