About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Shaking hands around the world! In the year of travel I have ahead I hope to shake as many hands as possible! Check me out on facebook ¨Shaking hands around the world!¨

ABOUT ME

After a year of travelling the world and meeting many an amazing couch surfer I am now settled in London. Before my travels I working for 3 years as a HR professional in the mining industry in remote locations of the Australian outback I decided to throw in the towel and explore North America, South America and Europe! That year in North and South America have opened my eyes to numerous cultures, hundreds of new friends and some of the best moments of my life to date. I wish to continue these experiences in the world of COUCHSURFING!

PHILOSOPHY

My new philosophy is simple. The pursuit of good times, with good times people in good times places. Maybe learn a few things along the way!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Couchsurfing has blown me away. I started surfing in Atlanta, Georgia in the US and followed it all the way to Budapest in Hungary and still can't get over the amazing experiences I have had since then. All of my hosts have been exceptional, each showing me their unique perceptive on life in their country! I literally can't wait to open up my couch upon my return to Australia or currently in London.

Interests

My travel so far has been a dream, and I cant wait for the next chapter. For a few years I've been Djing electronic music in clubs in Perth. It was/is still my passion even though my work has made it difficult to remain active. I'm a keen sailor, love to get outside and get my trek on, and making new friendships/ connections is fast becoming my number one priority now I've been travelling for a number of months. London is now my home and I love exploring the city and introducing new people to its fantastic history!

Point Break

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

From the Everest base camp trek to the Torres Del Paine, from Zion, Bryce and Yosemite NP's in the US to Far North Western Australia I love getting outside and letting nature do the rest. The Colombian lost city and Machu Pichu were amazing for me, and NYE and Carnival in Brazil were some of the best moments of my life! I wish to share these experiences with anyone who'll listen!
