About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To make my flight from San Francisco to Sydney with the limited funds I have left.

ABOUT ME

I am pretty laid back, helpful where I can be and non-judgemental. I also like to party.

I'm here to receive/give advice, coffee, drinks and to just generally help you out if you're a friendly, outgoing individual.

PHILOSOPHY

We are here to be somewhere great, doing something awesome.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

After doing my first big trip to South America I came to realise two things:

1. The people make the place
2. Local knowledge rules out rookie errors.

Thus my reasoning for participating in Couch Surfing. I like to meet new people, it helps make this place (Sydney) better (at least for the time they are around). So I benefit.

At the same time, people get some local insight and knowledge that can help them during their time in Sydney, and conversely (if you consider me a fun/good person) I'll help make the place for you.

I can only really offer myself up for coffee/drinks/advice (in person or via email/IM) as I can't offer up any couches, but this is how I participate in the CS project.

Interests

Partying. Skateboarding. DJing.

Music, Movies, and Books

David Lodge is probably my favorite author.

Music: A whole variety, House and techno first and foremost. Not a fan of most pop/radio/mtv stuff.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Smoked a doobie in a cloud on the Inca trail.
