About Me

I've lived in Australia all my life, growing up around Cairns and the Atherton Tablelands (Queensland) until 2010. I've lived in Darwin (Northern Territory) since 2010 where I'm still based today with my Girlfriend, Marianna.

In 2015 my girlfriend and I travelled the West Coast of South America to Cuba, covering 13 countries over 10 months. It was a great experience and would love to do again someday.

Travel is my passion, health and fitness is my hobby.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Hoping to meet new people, learn from their own travel experiences and share some of my own.

Music, Movies, and Books

Books: Never been much of a reader, but it's something is like to take up

Movies: According to my girlfriend... one of those stupid comedy's (like Step Brothers and Superbad, or anything with Seth Rogan, Will Ferrell, Jonah Hill etc). But that being said, I enjoyed "The Secret Life of Walter Mitty", "Into The Wild", "Cloud Atlas", "Jobs", "Hunger Games", "In Time". Basically anything that inspires you or shows a "Distopian" world, which somehow has many similarities to the world we live in today.

Music: If music is the soundtrack to your life, then I'm all over the place. I like a lot of Alternative Music, Rock, Hip-hop, Rap, Reggae, Metal, House, Trance, Dub, Drum n Bass and World Music.

The only thing I can't stand is that poppy mainstream stuff which tends to flood commercial radio and is played to death.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Travel is an amazing thing in itself. The people, places and culture are all experiences that are worth every cent it costs you to get there.

I can't say that I've personally done anything amazing, but consider myself very lucky to have had the opportunity to travel.
