About Me

I'm 30, Vegan, fairly quiet, polite and really easy going.

I'm passionate about music and art, I make music and take photos in my spare time; you can check both out at: www.runesrunes.com

I've played in bands and have toured Australia many times, Europe & the UK.
I also enjoy surfing, swimming and basically anything ocean related!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've been traveling around Iceland and honestly am starting to run out of money but would like to stay a bit longer to try and find some work and a more semi permanent place to live as I am a dual citizen (Maltese) and have always dreamt of living in Iceland for a short while.

Interests

I'm interested in music of all kinds but mainly experimental, atmospheric, ambient and punk music.

I like taking photos, drawing, and writing.

When I'm home I'm usually either surfing or down the beach.
