About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To be at home and help others do the same, all over the world

ABOUT ME

Born and raised in Hobart, Tasmania to Australian mother and US father. Moved around Australia's east coast looking for something bigger and better, found it in Japan?!
I'm a house cat most of the time, but I love road cycling solo or with friends, eating out and the odd beer. Otherwise I enjoy my work and my life in general!

PHILOSOPHY

Keeping an open mind is very important. The less bias we look at things with the better.
Material posessions have their purpose... so why not sample the best?
Wasted enthusiasm and wasted opportunities are the bane of my existence.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Taking a brief holiday in Japan in June '08, hoping to try something new and avoid hotel bills. I share a place in Melbourne with 5 other people, that's warm and safe and would love to offer a couch to those with similar interests.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Nothing yet! Heard only good things. I have of course crashed on friends couches around the place and there's nothing quite like waking up in (someone else's) busy home...

Interests

Food, health, creativity, music, art, fashion, hands on stuff. (especially if it earns $!) Bicycles, riding, exploring. Video games, movies and internet.
Other stuff.

  • cats

Music, Movies, and Books

Rave, rap, rock, metal, soul, jazz... Must have a beat. Burning guitar licks help!
Comedy, big budget action, horror, documentary, reality TV... I'll watch anything!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Oh dear... I'll need to think about this.
Blessed with true love but let it slip away?
Blessed with amazing friends.

Teach, Learn, Share

Can fix bicycles! I keep no secrets!
Want to learn all kinds of stuff. Fabric printing, guitar, cooking, infinite other things.
