About Me

ABOUT ME

I am a chilled out, easy going guy. A water baby - I love to surf kitesurf and snowboard the frozen water. I love to travel, have strange and interesting experiences and meet people from all over the world.

PHILOSOPHY

Enjoy life. Take what you want, break some rules, have a good laugh (even at your own expense). Respect and understand everyone. Be kind to the world, and it will be kind back to you.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I have had a few awesome couchsurfs when travelling abroad and want to give back to this lovely community. I am a professional working in the St Kilda area and would like to host up to 2 people for a few nights so they can see and enjoy this awesome town. I'm fairly busy with life stuff at the moment so won't be able to tour guide much, but super happy to have people come, have a place to rest, do laundry and have the occasional chat. I enjoy languages, so if you speak Spanish let's learn a phrase or two!

Interests

Meeting people.
Extreme sports - Wake boarding, windsurfing, snowboarding, downhill mountain biking.
I play the piano when ever I see one.
Cooking - Thai is my favourite.
