About Me

** Currently travelling the Australia & Tasmaniana Feb-Mar 2020 :) **

"It is good to have an end to journey toward; but it is the journey that matters, in the end." - Hemingway

"The world is a book, and those who don't travel read only one page." - St. Augustine

In 2010 after graduating college in Florida, I sold eveything and came to Australia on a one-way ticket. Getting my masters and securing high profile jobs working for major companies like SAP and Deloitte, a bad breakup and life changing moment with a fan lead me to quit my job I worked so hard to get to become a full-time musician travelling the world and writing music!

Have a long and crazy story best told over 🍻 or ☕! Basically a laidback business hippie fuelled by good karma, bent on changing the world through good vibes, love, and music!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have hosted over 30 people and helped people in need of information or assistance while traveling the area when I couldn't host them. I've also introduced countless people to the site many of whom now host surfers on a regular basis!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've hosted some of the most amazing people from around the world!! I love the concept and for me both hosting and being hosted is less about someone having a place to sleep (sure that's a plus) but it's also making new friends, learning about new cultures, and being able to experience the area with a local and show them your gratitude for having a place to stay with a unique home cooked meal for a night filled with laughs and in-depth conversations!

Interests

☕ and craft 🍻 enthusiast, 🍣 &🍶fan, cooking, music and jamming 🎶, 🏄, great chats over wine or whiskey, outdoors and hikes, good vibes and laughing to the point where it hurts 😂!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I'd have to say there two things:
2010 - I sold everything I owned and bought a one-way ticket to Australia
2013 - Left a well-paying corporate IT job to become a full-time musician

Teach, Learn, Share

Before you act, listen.
Before you react, think.
Before you spend, earn.
Before you criticize, wait.
Before you pray, forgive.
Before you quit, try. - Hemingway

Everyone has something to offer so listen twice as much as you speak!

What I Can Share with Hosts

Good vibes, laughs, music, live music, home cooked meals, a new best friend.
