CURRENT MISSION

To know everyone in the whole world by name, and buy them a drink.

ABOUT ME

I am 24 years old from Melbourne, Australia. I am a musician with a jazz music degree. I like friends and i like music and i like places. I like collecting socks, so I want to gather a pair of socks from all the countries I visit. My favourite colour is orange and i think lawn bowls should be an olympic sport!

PHILOSOPHY

As long as we have good intentions, we can only improve by the choices we make.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

For the excitement and to 'Pay it forward.' I love the concept - gives me a warm and fuzzy feeling.

Interests

I like eating food, drinking exotic beers/wines and meeting people who also enjoy these things. I love performing music. I play soccer, tennis and love going out to see live music whenever and wherever I can.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

When i was young, I was a ballboy for the tennis australian open. I was lucky enough to do the men's final where Novak Djokovic was playing. As a tennis fan growing up, this was a highlight - any child's dream!

PS I still have a tennis ball from the match!

Teach, Learn, Share

I am musically trained in jazz, specifically at the drums/percussion. (And have many instruments at my place) I would be more than happy to share my knowledge with anyone who'd like it! I've always wanted to learn photography. I am really bad, but that's something I've always wanted to be able to do well.
