About Me

Born in the UK and lived in Australia since i was 3. I love traveling and over the last few years have traveled Europe, South Korea, Japan and am now traveling Central and North America. I love to sink a can, explore a city and sing with no talent at any chance i get. I was studying Medical Science at university before i decided to concentrate on travel for a few years before starting a career. When in Australia, i live in a share house with anywhere from 3 to 7 staying at any one time.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Staying in America is more expensive than i can ever imagine. Money that could be spent on beer or transit is now heading into accommodation and i desperately need my beer money. Whenever i have had people stay on my couch its always been fun and the best way to have fun in the city is knowing someone that can find all the hidden gems.

Back home, i've had several travelers stay with my housemates and i, once having 7 people staying in a 3 bedroom house. I enjoy having a busy home with various personalities.

Interests

I'm a massive sport fanatic, any sport ill happily watch. All but ice hockey where i cant for the life of me follow the puck. Love a night out with some good company and chasing the sunrise. Since discovering yoga in Central America i've had a interest to try it again, but have very poor flexibility so dont expect amazing results.

Music, Movies, and Books

Moby managed to escape my ipod for too many year that I'm making up for it now. Play is now my transit album of choice. I love any chilled electronic plus all the pop classics from the 90's as well. Movies my favourite trilogy is the Matrix but living with 2 film students means ill happily watch anything. Psychological thrillers are the flavor of the month. I've just finished reading the Alchemist and would love any suggestions.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I always finish a burrito, no bean escapes my mouth.

Teach, Learn, Share

Im looking to learn massage therapy when i get back to australia also learning a few more bit of pieces of yoga. I can cook a mean steak and tuna pasta bake if that your thing otherwise im keen to learn more recipes.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share a beer, a good laugh and a good time. A mate from australia with a couch thats always welcome for you.
