Hey!

I'm Matt (as you probably know by now), I am 19 years old and live in Blue Mountains, NSW, Australia.

I would much rather fill my life with awesome people and experiences than material possessions and money. I am a self defence instructor and fitness trainer, I love my job as I feel like I am honestly making a difference in the lives of kids. I want to eventually become a high school teacher here in Australia, I am also a dedicated vegan and animal rights activist :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to eventually travel the world and meet new and amazing people, but before I do the travelling bit I figure why not offer to host some of you guys and learn your stories?

Interests

I am a dedicated vegan and animal rights activist, I train in and teach Krav maga and combatives and also frequent the gym. Yeah that's about it :)

Music, Movies, and Books

I like all music except for screamo, mainly rap/r&b.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I am going to Africa at the end of August to volunteer with an anti-poaching company which will involve patrolling Kruger National park with a team of armed rangers, saving animals and amazing experiences!

Teach, Learn, Share

More than happy to teach some self defence if you're interested!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I live in the incredible Blue Mountains which has some amazing scenery and bush tracks, I will also supply vegan food (you can eat meat if you want obviously) and friendly conversation :)
