About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Exploration of The USA.

ABOUT ME

I think friends would say that I' always looking for a laugh, telling stories of adventures or talking about music, book and films that I'm into. Music is my religion.

PHILOSOPHY

Tough question. How long is a piece of string?
Be good to others and don't be too quick to judge.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've only just joined couch surfing, so at the moment I'm looking to surf and meet new people and return the favour by making my couch available when I return to Australia.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

None as yet... C'mon! Help me get started!

Interests

At the moment my life has been taken over by travelling and working my way around, so I'm always interested to here about interesting places in Europe and the UK.
It's good to exchange thoughts and ideas about life with other people, a lot of the time I just like to listen to what other people have to say, to hear their stories and points of view, to maybe change or consolidate my way of thinking.
I'm really into pop culture, especially music, its been a bit of an obsession since I was young. Its the love of my life.
I'm just starting to take an interest in football/soccer...its growing on me.
