About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Experience the world - even outter space!

ABOUT ME

I work in the consrtruction industry and recently have returned from spending 13 months travelling Europe and living in London. Had an awesome experience meeting people from all difficult cultures and learning about their lives.

Im a bit of an adrenaline seeker. Love anything adventurous as long as its not ridiculously stupid where the risk out ways the reward.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I met a fair few people who were members of couch surfing so signed up on my travels. Although i didnt officially use couch surfing while travelling, my best experiences were when i stayed with the locals after meeting them somewhere else in Europe first. Love the concept and since im back in Oz would love to share my country with others.
