About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Reckless abandon

ABOUT ME

Loves - water, sunsets, friends, laughing, wine, curry, chocolate, coffee, cats, art, fishtanks, cows, pyjamas, the colour yellow, and the austalian 'outback' :-)

Dislikes - mosquitoes, crocodiles, rockmelon, politics, the price of movie tickets, coriander, chicken on pizza, Julia Gillard, and sand in my bathers.

PHILOSOPHY

There is not a shred of evidence to suggest that life was meant to be serious.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Travelling, or at least planning my next trip...

Lazing at the beach in summer...

Camping, fishing, sailing... or anything else to do with water...unless the water is too cold!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Climbed Ayres Rock...
Driven from Darwin to Hobart...
Rode a motorbike around Thailand and Laos... and lived!

Climbed Mt Kinabalu...
Visited Sepilok Orang-utan sanctuary...
Went to Angkor Wat...

And being a Vet presents some pretty amazing opportunities... monkeys, turtles, snakes, birds, and the most amazing cats you'll ever meet.

Teach, Learn, Share

If you we find a boat I can teach you to sail :-)

Know a fair bit about animals... and can probably come up with a million funny stories from vet school...
