Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
I am surprisingly happy with how life is going! Pretty much dismissed the notion of working for someone else or doing anything that doesn't make me happy. Very much not into bullshit artists who have slogans like ' live life for the now your dreams are your destiny'. Most of these people have shit jobs in offices and just want to appear cool and free spirited. My mission would be to demonstrate how to actually get the most out of stuff rather than have a poster in the bathroom with a fucking dolphin diving over a rainbow saying you only have one chance make it happen'.
Irrationally wary of guys with white dread locks and girls who post profile pictures with necklaces and hair bands made of flowers!
ABOUT ME
Under achiever .
PHILOSOPHY
Why does the word 'athiest' exist? We don't have a word for not believing in fairies?
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I sometimes have a spare room. Why waste it when It might make someone a bit happier and safer during their stay in Nice .
COUCH SURFING EXPERIENCE
Going pretty well.
Interests
Music, food, travel, random TV documentaries, fishing and outdoor stuff that isn't just walking and pointing!
Mooching about with no plan and seeing what happens.
Working! Believe it or not! I have carved out a life that is fun, interesting and at the very least varied! Work philosophy is a simple one. If you don't give it a try how will you ever know if you can. do it.... and don't EVER work for arseholes.

Music, Movies, and Books
I watch almost anything except rom coms and slasher movies. I like British comedy Buzzcocks, 8 out of 10 cats etc, stand up if it is genuinely funny. Louis CK, Gervais, Izzard, Frankie Boyle, Dave Chapelle etc.
Natural history documentaries a bit of a weak spot ...in fact most documentaries I know more than is really healthy about sharks and Honey Badgers!
Music is a mixed bag. I like a good song regardless of genre rather than a specific artist. If I had to edge a band/s probably The Wildhearts and Bon Scott era AC/DC followed by friends Boss Caine and a bizzare love of Huey Lewis Greatest hits!!! It's weird and I'm ashamed. Best driving cassette in my car! ' yes cassette!
I'm not much of a reader. Last thing I think was The bible...I like fiction.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Powerboat racing .(On going)
Snow Blading ( retired)
Drove From Melbourne to Darwin in 7 days.
Fishing on the Daintree river at 2 am in Queensland and being rushed by a 9 foot croc!
My job as a singer in a rock and roll band...... too many stories over 25 years to really go into!
Oh yeah, and Died..... twice.
