hey reader, my name justin and live more or less thirty minutes out from the city of melbourne in australia. I love many things, some include long walks on the beach, candelit dinners and travelling. The first two not so much, if at all but I, like yourself enjoy experiencing the scent of languages, different ideas and amazing people which come out of the melting pot which is travelling. I´ve recently finished my undergraduate in science (in anatomy and physiology) and am considering whether to continue in physiotherapy, teaching or something completely out of the ball park.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I´m currently travelling through south america and as much as hostels are a great way to meet people I believe coachsurfing allows me a greater ability to meet natives of the country, so to see the country through their eyes. More importantly I enjoy sharing my company and thoughts with others aswell to give them the insight of a part of the world they have not had any or little contact with. CURRENTLYÑ: travelling through peru for the next three weeks

Interests

I love music, listening to it, eating it, but most importantly playing it. Specifically the guitar, I also have a ukulele though this is gathering dust at home, maybe someday and can bring it on my travels and rock out. Sports is also something I enjoy, mainly running which I do a lot of back in the country of kangaroos, something so practical wherever you are (although in my first month in south america I´ve only been for one run..on treadmill! )

Music, Movies, and Books

I don´t think you can have one favourite movie but one I really do enjoy is whiplash. Boy meets girl story where the boy is a boy and the girl is a drum. Time is of the essence so I think your better of youtubing it then watching it and soaking in how awesome it is, Favourite book: Norwegian Wood, Favourite music: many things: indie, top 40, majestic casual, the sound you need, jazz, many random playlists on spotify (spotify is the best creation in all of mankind)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Did half marathon last year along the great ocean round was beautiful and I almost had a cardiac arrest (not really) but listening to some chilled music whilst running amongst the scenic views of oceans and trees was something great and challenging that I won´t forget especially as I did it with a couple of friends

Teach, Learn, Share

When your travelling download an app called maps.me it will blow your mind plus you can put routes of all the places you´ve been to, if you kindly host me I will show you this wizadry and I gurantee you will never look back. I don´t work for maps.me it just a really cool app, when I re-read this I realised how much of an info-mercial it sounded like.
