CURRENT MISSION

Become as culturally competent as possible!

ABOUT ME

If my friends were to describe me, they'd say I'm fun and easy going, and always quick with a joke! They'd remark that I'm a nerd, but add quickly that I'd be the cool kind, full of random facts. They'd probably say I'm loyal and caring.

PHILOSOPHY

"Everything will be all right in the end... if it's not all right then it's not the end."
Or, as we say in Australia: "She'll be right, mate."
(Not the best mantra for university work, but hey, it makes for some interesting travelling!)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I'm new to the couch-surfing game, and am setting up a couch of my own, but right now I'd like to have a go at travelling with this huge community and have some fun!

I like most English music, maybe a little on the 'indie' side, but if you can name something I haven't heard of, I'll be listening to it over and over straight away! I'm especially trying to get into jazz...
I've seen lots of movies, but not enough.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Looking across the Alps from the top of the slopes on a perfect day of skiing in Verbier, Switzerland. If only I could bottle that feeling and carry it around with me!
