Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've had both good and bad experiences...but the good way out-weighed the bad.
I want to use my powers for good.

Interests

I run a small business making paleo, vegan, allergy-friendly snack foods.
I don't follow a strict diet but aim for low carb, high fat with an emphasis on unprocessed and home made foods.

Thinking about and making and eating food takes up most of my time.

For the rest of the time, I hang with friends and family and cats.
Me and my friends have a very successful pub trivia team, we like going out dancing but to good DJs and not shit clubs, I'd choose a house party over a club any day of the week. I like nature and hiking and stuff, I'm an avid mushroom hunter and I'd be a better gardener if the possums didn't strip everything I put in the ground.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Started my own business.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you a lot about nutrition, cooking, mushroom picking, art, literature, travel, grammar, and techniques to deal with anxiety and depression.

I'd like to learn how to cook your favourite dish and what makes you tick.

We can share food, drink, rides, accomodation, stories, whatever.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Food, drink, stories, laughs, insecurities, opinions, driving, the TV remote.
