About Me

I love travelling and meeting new people and getting to know and learn the local cultures.
I'm mad for getting in the water, especially surfing waves of any sort.
Love the arts and culture, music, movies, socialising, having fun, being positive and living the moment.
I enjoy being helpful and trying to help people with what ever they may need. Something fixed or just directions to their next destination.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet new people and cultures and if they come to Oz, they're more than welcome to stay with us and soak up what we have to offer :-)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I paddled 52km from the Hawaiian island of Molokai, back to Oahu. This was for the World Paddle Board Championships. It was such an accomplishment, but it came with some serious thoughts in my head, a lot of pain afterwards, good laughs while paddling, chasing mates in the deep open ocean, avoiding sharks, laughing out aloud to myself, crying, smiling, having fun and finally finishing a dream of mine.... to cross the Molokai Channel!!
Then we all got to relish in the festivities and with such an amazing bunch of people!!!

Teach, Learn, Share

I love to teach and i love to learn. Especially about life!!
I live and breathe the ocean and if i can show people how to use it safely and to their advantage, then they will love what i have grown up in. The ocean consumes people very easily and can be a dangerous place to play. But with a few lessons, that can all be avoided.
Helping the youth find their feet and a positive path in life is a big one for me. Good to see how easily people can change and find new beginnings.

What I Can Share with Hosts

A clean place to stay in a great area. Forest in the back yard and plenty of good surf for all abilities!!
If you need anything fixed in or around your place, i'll definitely give you a hand with it. I love to make things and fix broken things. I hate seeing items get thrown in the rubbish, if it doesn't need to be. Way too many things get wasted and our world doesn't need to be thrashed any more than it has been already.
