About Me

CURRENT MISSION

you never know whats coming around the next corner, all you can do is embrace it!

ABOUT ME
Living back in Sydney after years abroad, i've run out of working holiday visas to go for, apparently I should have grown up and settled down by now.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is not about waiting out the storm, but learning to dance in the rain

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have had many 'couch surfing' friends to our place over the past couple of years, but have only recently found this website. It's a fantastic way for travelers to enjoy their journey cheaply and safely.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

When traveling through Vietnam in 2008, we met a Dutch couple on the first leg of our trip. We kept running in to each other as we traveled southbound. We became great friends over the next couple of weeks and found that they were on their way to Australia, and 6 months later they came to stay with us for 3 weeks in Sydney. They were eternally grateful to have free accom, a clean bathroom and a warm bed. They cooked us an amazing farewell dinner and we look forward to catching up with them in Holland one day.
