I'm currently cursing around Australia with my girlfriend Gillian in the little van we bought.

I grew up with a Dutch mother and a Welsh dad who thought it would be funny giving me a really dutch name whilst bringing me up in England!

I'm an active dude - love to be outside.

Always loved the idea of travel and adventure and have decided its time to get myself out there (further afield than just bumming it around europe!!)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love the philosophy! Have had a few friends who have participated and always intended to get involved. Now that I find myself out and about in OZ I feel its a neccessity. What a great way to get the locals perspective.

Interests

I love the extreme sports. They are cool. I parcicipate in:
Skiing - personal favourite
Paragliding - wish I could do more
Rock climbing - I dabble but reckon I'm fairly profficient at climbing trad
SCUBA - simply amazing!
Motorcycles - scary!

Surfing - have begun since arriving in Oz and can get up on my shortboard now :D
