Graphic designer and copywriting by trade. Amateur beach volleyballer, semi-professional café loiterer, aspiring space tourist. I like to travel to places that make my mum nervous.

My last overseas adventure was timing brilliantly: I went to Cuba just before lockdown. I've managed to enjoy some domestic travelling over the past year (Jindabyne, Blue Mountains, Byron Bay). When Earth gets over its spicy cough, my go-bag list includes Russia, Lebanon, Israel and many others.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing is a great way to live like Romans do in Rome. I don't mean drink espresso, eat pizza and talk with my hands (although this is all good stuff), but rather to get a slice of the culture, meet a true local (or even a temporary one).

Interests

I enjoy the create aspect of my work and that bleeds into my free time with various writing and artistic experiments. I like black coffee early and red wine late, good music, good films, good books, good video games, good conversation, and any kind of physical activity.

Music, Movies, and Books

Hip-hop, epics, and autobiographies respectively.
Currently I'm listening to Nine Inch Nails, watching The Boys and reading Sex on the Moon, a true story about a NASA burglar.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Walked across the border dividing North and South Korea.

Teach, Learn, Share

I used to teach English professionally and now write professionally, so I can help you with this if you like. I can also answer your Creative Cloud questions (Illustrator, Photoshop, InDesign and Lightroom). I'm into productivity practices so let's geek out about GTD, Notion, gamification, second brain and lifestyle design!

What I Can Share with Hosts

Wine and conversation.
