About Me

Pronounced Lock-y, short for Lachlan, although Europeans seem to pronounce it Lucky.

I am a fun loving guy who is always up to have a good time. I love surfing and bodyboarding, hiking, canyoning and just having rad adventures. Am very friendly, easy going and just want to enjoy all that Couch Surfing has to offer and it gives me a chance to meet new people from all around the globe. Yes I am a stunt performer in film and television but that does not make me entirely insane. I've also just started my own Canyoning Tour Company on the Gold Coast, Australia.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

To meet as many people as I can and make some life long friends, also to just have some fun...I do enjoy seeing the smiles on people's faces when I take them along the above average road by the ocean.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have literally surfed a couch down a set of stairs and attempted to catch a wave on it after, then drag the waterlogged couch back to the car park (true story).

Along my travels and at home I have met many couch surfers and have been hosted in Sweden, Denmark, Germany (Berlin and Munich), Austria, Italy, Switzerland, France, Hungary (twice because we had so much fun the first time around!!), UK and Thailand.
Also take people down the Great Ocean Road when I have the opportunity. I started hosting people on the Gold Coast but my housemates weren't too keen on having "strangers" in the house unfortunately. Everyone is a stranger until you meet them :)

Interests

Adventures, by adventures I mean anything I haven't done yet. I've seen a big hill on the side of the road and pulled over just to climb to the top. Adventures are what you make of them, they don't have to be out there to be an adventure.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love all movies, especially the good ones I apparently listen to bad music but I like it. Labelled as "punk/emo/rock/hardcore", whatever it is I enjoy it but like most other types of music too. Especially road tripping to Rock anthems made famous by Glee :) (but not the Glee versions hahaha) Don't stop Believin'

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

My birthday in Barcelona was an unforgettable experience. Which I have since mostly forgotten after writing that a long time ago due to my old age. Travelling around my home country in a van for almost two years was absolutely incredible.
