Hello everybody, my name is Kye and I am a 22 year old male from Australia. I am on couchsurfing because I have a deep desire to meet and get to know local people from around the world and through them better understand the culture of the place I’m in. I see no better way to travel than this.

I’m a curious, spirited and adventurous type, but also a conscientious and cleanly person.

I’m sociable and enjoy talking to people. I like to read broadly, and try to learn as much as I can about the country I’m visiting.

I’m also an active person and frequently go to the gym, play football, walk, hike and do things outdoors.

The couchsurfing community has been fantastic to me, and I hope to meet many more of you!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am on couch surfing to find local people to stay and hang out with on my travels, as I believe this is the best way to truly understand and experience any given place. The people on this app have been some of the most interesting I’ve ever met and I hope to meet many more.

- Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith
- Memento
- Requiem for a Dream
- The lord of the rings series

I’m an Avid reader and am particularly a fan of reading “the great literature” as they call it, various novels, and books on psychology and history. Some favourites writers and works include:
- Fyodor Dostoevsky. particularly Notes from Underground and Crime and Punishment
- Vladimir Nabokov
- Homers Illiad
- Virgil’s Aeneid
- The Oxfords a very short introductions series
- Denial of Death by Ernest Becker

- Any history book, especially about the great events and people, but also books about the country I’m travelling in at the time.

I recently hiked the summit of Mt Toubkal, which is the biggest in Northern Africa ⛰️

What I Can Share with Hosts

I hopefully can provided a fun and energetic presence (or a calm and captivating one, depending on taste) but also an interesting cultural exchange, as I love to converse and learn new things from new people, and I do my best to return the favour.
