About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To explore the beauty in the world and find out what I'm missing

ABOUT ME

I'm the kind of person that sees a challenge and has to take it, to be the best I can become and to live life to the full. I want to think outside of the way people normally think, to live my life outside of mainstream society's monotonous bore.

I love learning and finding out about the world. The more I learn the more I realise I dont know.

I love to have fun, to have a laugh with people I love. Most of all, I love meeting new people, hearing about how they live, and how their culture differs from my own. I'm very open minded. I'll try almost anything if it looks like fun.

I'm very optomistic. I never seem to get angry, and I'm never sad for long. I try to see the best out of every situation.

PHILOSOPHY

'Be the best that you can become' - this isnt just in competition with others, its all about fullfilling your life's potential. What's the point in staying in one place for your whole life when you can see the world!

Life is all about the attitude you have towards it - be positive and you follow a positive path. It's all about karma.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I couchsurfed around America for a month - best experience EVER - met so many kind hearted and beautiful people! I've moved into a house share so can't currently host, but I'm very happy to meet cool new people in Sydney.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Surfed around the East coast of America, and met some amazing people.

Interests

I love challenging myself physically, so I'm a CrossFitter but I also do the odd marathon or half and play netball.

I like reading when i have the time, but thats not often. I love hanging out and having a laugh, thinking of fun things to get up to. The beach is my playground.

Anything adventurous and I'll be smiling.

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies: chick flicks and Shawshank!

Music: British Indie, dance, chart and a bit of everything else. I love dancing, so anything that makes me want to jump around like a giant geek is great.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Coming to America was my first baby step in the world of travelling. I have surfed in Hawaii, stood at the edge of the grand canyon, seen the sights of Las Vegas and snowboarded the volcanoes of Oregon. I have sailed under the golden gate bride and ridden on a harley davidson through Orange County. I have drunk tequila in Mexico, petted animals at San Diego zoo, and camped in the snow at Crater Lake....what more could I ask for???

...A lot more...it continues....

What I Can Share with Hosts

I make a mean spaghetti bolognaise.
