About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To see Europe before I have to go home and settle into the 9 to 5.

ABOUT ME

I enjoy most sports, whether it be watching them or playing them, listening to music and learning (particularly about geeky, science related stuff). I would love to travel the world, although with current circumstances this is not always possible.

PHILOSOPHY

I live my life because the alternative really sucks! I know everything can't be fun and exciting all the time, but when it is I like to make the most of it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm only new to CS so I haven't done that much to be honest. I'm happy to host anyone at my home in Wollongong (australia) if they need a place to crash.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have couched surfed in a number of countries in Europe and have met some really wonderful and kind people.

Interests

Basically I live for motor sport, just about any type, but mainly F1, MotoGP, Superbike, WRC, DTM, you know, the big ones! But I also love listening to music, and talking and learning about nerdy science stuff.

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies: I like political thrillers and movies about sports
Music: There's a wide range, but I can tell you that I hate R&B and any of the mainstream Lady Gaga, justin Beiber stuff. Some of the bands I do like are - Muse - Tame Impala - The Do - Vampire Weekend - Yves Klien Blue - Iron and Wine - The Shins - Radiohead - Cloud Control - System of Down - The Strokes - The Presets - Daft Punk - Nirvana - Kasabian - Elliott Smith - Andrew Bird - Angus and Julia Stone.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

By far the most amazing thing I've seen in my life is the northern lights, that was so trippy. I also spent some time in the Arctic circle, which was amazing.

Teach, Learn, Share

Well my friends always laugh that I can send anyone to sleep with my knowledge of race cars and cricket, so I suppose that I can teach people a bit about that. But I've also worked in some pretty interesting places such as jails, high rise construction, hospitals.
I'm currently studying to be a teacher, so I enjoy having discussions with like minded people about education.
