CURRENT MISSION

Live the dream!

ABOUT ME

I am a fairly relaxed and casual person who tries not to take anything too seriously or get stressed out. I think its really important to always have fun and a laugh, especially at yourself. I always like to give new things a try and that's what travelling and meeting new people is all about. I grew up in a small coastal town, I love the outdoors and surfing is my passion.

PHILOSOPHY

Try anything once, always keep an open mind and dont be afraid to aspire to more than just mediocrity. Aim for the stars and you might reach the tree tops, aim for the tree tops and you might not leave the ground.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I would like to meet new people from different parts of the world and see what their culture and themselves are all about. I have been travelling for some months and enjoyed the experience of meeting fellow travellers in hostels and similar but i would also really like to get to know some locals. At the same time the people which I meet can learn about my culture and way of life. Couch surfing is a great way to get the most of a travelling experience and get the best advice from the people who know the best...the locals!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

just good people and fun times, i though this whole thing would be weird but i have had nothing but good experiences.

Interests

Surfing is my passion but so too is everything that comes with it. that includes: the outdoors, camping, fishing, hiking and the adventure of searching for and discovering new waves.
I also have a real passion and enjoyment of music. I listen to a broad taste in music and like to find new and different music. I especially enjoy music in sociable environments such as going to festivals, live concerts, bars and clubs.
I also enjoy simply hanging out with my friends exchanging stories and having a laugh.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

surfing perfect waves with nobody around but deserted tropical islands, crystal clear water, tropical fish and a couple of friends in indonesia whilst on a boat trip

Teach, Learn, Share

I can surf and would be willing to help those who would also like to learn.
I would also really like to learn a new language. I would really like to learn both Spanish and Portuguese and I would be able to help to teach English. i can slackline (like tight rop walking) and can teach how also.
