I’m an Australian, studying politics in Gothenburg, Sweden throughout 2018 but also doing a bit of Travel throughout Europe in between - I love surfing and Aussie football and am always up for a chat, a laugh or a beer (all 3 is perfect)! I’m very easy going and friendly so am happy with just the bare minimum. I’m new to couch surfing but am very respectful and grateful to anyone willing to take in a young, lost Aussie traveller I absolute love music discovering new artists who are up and coming especially in the folkie, indie-rock scene! I play a little bit of guitar and ukulele as well but I'm not much of a musician. I live on the beach and it is where I find myself spending most of my time. Swimming, surfing, paddle boarding, body surfing or just making the most of the endless opportunities the ocean offers is the best way to recharge the batteries. Working in a bar along the Great Ocean Rd has been my favorite job ever as I got to surf with my brothers all day and pour beers at night. Im at a stage in my life where I'm just trying to learn as much as I can. Whether it be a quiet night in and trading stories, sharing a coffee (I am from Melbourne after all), or a night out with some funky customers
I find it pretty difficult to explain myself in a profile so this isn't the best attempt - but give me chance and hopefully I'll prove you right! Id like to think that I’m a pretty friendly guy and would just love the opportunity to build relationships with people from all different walks of life
