About Me

CURRENT MISSION

become fluent in german and make the most my last year in europe

ABOUT ME

I'm a pretty relaxed,easy going guy who is into lots of different things. I can come across as quiet and shy, but I'm really just someone who likes to listen and observe most of the time, and voice my opinion when the time is right...I currently live between Perth, Australia and Berlin, Germany.

PHILOSOPHY

Live truth - fully

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

To give something back to the CS community I'm hosting while I'm at home in Australia and hopefully will be able to host when I return to Germany.

I always recommend CS to people in the hope the community will grow. Who knows perhaps one day the whole world will be a CS community :D

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Couchsurfing has given me some of the best experiences of my life, when I went to Europe alone at the age of 18, I put trust in the couchsurfing community and was deeply rewarded, the people and places I experienced was beyond anything I had expected...
I always try and do as much for the host as I can to return the favour of being hosted.

Interests

music, dancing, film, rock climbing, yoga, surfing, running, cooking, gardening, design, art, travel and all the new experiences that come with it, meeting people, hanging with my homies

Music, Movies, and Books

Anything that is real and heartfelt...I like too many bands to name but some favourites would be Sufjan Stevens, the Walkmen, Woods, Tame impala, War on Drugs, Phosphorescent, Sun Kil moon, Alex Cameron and then a whole pile of dj's.
Anything done by David Lynch, he is my all time favourite director. Punch drunk love, enemy, apocalypse now, all the classics.
I have recently fallen in love with murakami, now I understand why he is so popular, the wind up bird chronicles, 1Q84, the prophet, dune, one flew over the cuckoos nest, the catcher in the rye, all the classics again.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

slept in the mountains

Teach, Learn, Share

How to do sun salutation :) it's the best way to wake up in the morning
