CURRENT MISSION

It's all about the stories

ABOUT ME

After 6.5 years of uni I went off on my token explore-the-world-for-18-months type trip brushing all continents bar Africa and the big white cold one, but I guess you have to leave something for next time :)

Now I'm in the pursuit of occupation for money without the feeling of work. For now I'm building a weekend house for my family... Any other ideas? haha

Oh, and I'm making a documentary about a little boat we made powered by motorcycles to sail from Colombia to Panama across the caribbean. Nothing too obscene.

PHILOSOPHY

If you're not living on the edge you're taking up too much room.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I was a host when I lived in Melbourne, then I surfed in Sweden and the USA

Now I get to be a host again! Game on!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My cousin couch-surfed in Germany and the whole concept is such a great idea that I had to hitch onto the band wagon!

Interests

I dig anything active- canyoning, caving, camping, canoeing, drinking, reading a book, music, sleeping - everything active. I'll try anything twice.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music! Almost any Australian is great, Aussie hip-hop, Xavier Rudd, Butterfingers, Old School - Presidents of the USA, The streets. I play a little guitar also, so singalongs are tops!
Movies take up too much time that can be spent living life. So; Anchorman Zoolander, Waynes World, Waynes World 2, and more!
Books, Bill Bryson is a current 'like' and anything fast paced will suck me in, Matthew Reily, Clive Cussler, even John Grisham.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have been air-lifted out of a canyon by a helicopter, been lost and trapped in a blizzard in Mongolia at -40 deg C, partied in Rio for Carnival, ice climbed glaciers in Patagonia, ridden a motorcycle through South America, built a boat powered by motorcycle to cross the Darien Gap and road trippped through the states in a Limo... And it's not over yet :)

Teach, Learn, Share

Well, I suppose I am the worlds pre-eminent expert on motorcycle powered lifeboats... Check www.fourstrokesofluck.com if you want to know what I a jabbering about..
