About Me

Hey friends! I'm from Brisbane, Australia and am currently travelling with my girlfriend who is from Antwerp. I'm staying in Antwerp for most of my 3 month stay in Europe but am travelling all over in January, hit me up if you want to hang out!

I work at an ecommerce software company in Brisbane so I'm always happy to talk all things tech. I do indoor climbing with a couple of friends too so if there are any local spots I'd love to do that too.

I've been a big history buff since I was a kid but it was always difficult in Brisbane as we don't have as much as the rest of the world. So super keen to see any part of the world older than what I'm used to.

I also love plants and keep dozens of them at my own place. Something about watching them be successful makes me happier.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

There are a few locations on my trip where I'm being left to travel on my own while my girlfriend catches up with friends of her own. I'm not the best at introducing myself in person so I'm hoping couch surfing can help there!

Music, Movies, and Books

I listen to a lot of Australian bands like Tame Impala, last dinosaurs and the jungle giants. But I also love hip hop like Brockhampton, Romeo Elvis and Zwangere Guy.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

To be honest I hadn't even left Australia until just now so I can't say I've been paragliding in the mountains or getting lost in the jungle like others...

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm learning Flemish Dutch from my Belgian girlfriend and her family so would enjoy any chance to practice as I'm pretty sure she is getting bored of me practicing all the time...

What I Can Share with Hosts

I love to cook and would be happy to make a meal for you, even buy everything from the store to stock your fridge. I eat just about anything and can make anything from soba noodle soup, to palak paneer to a shepherd's pie.
