CURRENT MISSION

To see as much as the world as I possibly can, to meet as many intriguing people as possible, to practice my fledgling Spanish, and collect stories to tell my numerous future grandchildren....

ABOUT ME

I've been travelling for a little while, and i've become steadily addicted to it. I can thing of nothing better in this world than to wander around it, meeting intriguing people, having adventures and occasionally fighting windmills. As cliche as it is life is short (variety is the spice of life, black goes with everything... forgive me) and there is no time to be wasted.

PHILOSOPHY

To make the most of life! To meet as many happy people as I can.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

In previous houses I've lived in I've had many overseas and local visitors take advantage of our cosy and accommodating couches. Unfortunately I can't let anyone sleep on my couch at the moment, due to lack of couches, but i'd love to meet anyone for a coffee.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've had a few... All good ones! I used to live in a beach house close to Sydney and our house was often inundated with interesting and quirky people.
