About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To work hard, meet new and intersting people and enjoy the journey of life, not just the desination.

ABOUT ME

,,,I would say I'm a mature minded person, who takes a genuine interest in people and travel, and thinks there's nothing more important than good health, creating great memories, spending quality time with friends and family. I have a strong work ethic but when I have spare time I like to relax and enjoy life.

PHILOSOPHY

You can never be in 2 places at the same time, so don't try to be. Sounds simple but often it's inadvertently what we do on a daily basis. When listening to someone, give them all your attention, when doing a particular task, put all your effort into it and do it well. Live in the NOW!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Recently found out about CS through 2 close friends of mine and love the concept. Would be happy to help out when I have the time to any other fellow CS members to make their stay here in our beautiful town more pleasant and hopefully be able to Couch Surf in another country when I get the urge to travel again.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

None as yet, but hopefully in the not too distant future I will have some great stories to tell here.

Interests

Financial markets, property development, music, movies, cooking, photography, personal fitness, having fun with friends and family and of course travel.

Music, Movies, and Books

Love most easy listening music, R&B, dance, cafe jazz etc. Not a fan of Heavy Metal or punk. The majority of books I tend to read are non fictional, however I will occasionally indulge in fiction time permitting.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Attended a Russian Martial Arts training camp held in Canada, played Black Jack at Casino Montecarlo in Monaco, took a helicopter ride over the French Rivera, plunged through the water in an open boat at Niagara Falls, did 2 home stays in Japan where both families spoke no english, caugt some serious waves in Bali, patted a shark off the coast of Hawaii, took part in a cooking class in Thailand, backpacked through London and Paris,,,

Teach, Learn, Share

Not sure exactly what I could teach, but my friends would say I have some culinary prowess in the kitchen, so I guess I could probably impart some of my knowledge of how to cook tasty meals to anyone who likes spicy food. I have also helped a few people to get better results in the gym with more focused and dedicated training techniques to achieve the body they really want. I also have a fairly good knowledge of the local town and would be happy to point out the best places to see and things to do while in Bundaberg.
