CURRENT MISSION

Live in Melbourne for a while, then move to NYC in July 2015.

ABOUT ME

I'm a 27yo human man living with 8 friends in an office building in Melbourne. I only work casually, as do a few of my housemates, and in our spare time we try to do a lot of surfing, play lots of basketball, go to pretentious cafes, and have lots of fun with friends. I'm learning Spanish because I want to couch surf around South America in 2016, and planning to go and live in NYC for 6 months or so from July 2015. Before I leave Melbourne though I'm keen to help out some couch surfers with a place to stay, as I've found it to be a really handy tool in my experience overseas!

PHILOSOPHY

Will Smith's "running and reading" speech at the MTV kids' awards show.

Algo increíble que he hecho

Completing my first marathon. Sounds lame but I had a horrible race and was in bad pain from quite early on so I gained a bit of respect for myself being able to run out the distance.
