About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to meet new people!

ABOUT ME

So, to be brief..I like good beer, music, people and food.simple really. I like to laugh and talk, learn new things and be happy. I'm living in Australia again after being abroad for a year. I'm now very poor but have a lot of plans for the future. I will return to Europe some day. Hopefully sooner than later. In the meantime I just want to work and spend time with family. I'd also like to meet new people and enjoy myself a little. :)

PHILOSOPHY

My mum once said..."Life is for living, let go of your hate and regrets. Move forward and enjoy each new day"
So keeping that in mind i try to relax, smile and have a laugh and live it up while i can.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Well I don't really. I went to a couple of CS meetings whilst living in Düsseldorf but haven't been to any here. I met one of my closest friends through CS so I'm pretty stoked about that.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

i have no experience at all. I would like to try it sometime though. Just working up the courage is hard.

Interests

I like all the usual things...food, beer, music,good humour, bad humour, reading, long walks on the beach - ha.etc etc. I'm pretty laid back so i'm happy just cruising along. I also like to sing and dance, I'm terrible at both - but i don't mind. My favourite thing in the world is laughing. Nothing beats a big belly laugh..

Music, Movies, and Books

Ok so growing up we had was Queen, Pink Floyd, Meatloaf, Van Morrison, Metallica, Bee Gees, Andrea Bocelli, Alanis Morissette, AC/DC, Sheryl Crow, Elvis Presley, Guns'n'Roses...hmmm who else? Elton John? the list goes on. Other than all those i like Jeff Buckley, Disturbed, System of a Down, Michael Jackson, Adele and a shit load of others. Queen is my all time favourite band, but i'm happy to sing a long to anything really.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

hmmm #1. I moved to Germany...on my own. To live with a family who i had never met before to look after three kids who didn't speak english.

#2. I went to Croatia to meet family that i had never met before and out of the 60 odd people i met i had only spoken to 3 of them before. I fell in love with the people and the place. I miss it!

Teach, Learn, Share

I like to learn. I'm not particularly good at it, but i enjoy it none the less. I'm attempting to learn German but in all honesty - it frightens the crap out of me. So I don't see myself actually being able to use it. I know I WILL learn to ride a motorbike - Although I know nothing about them. I've realised that once i'm passionate about something - I go for it.

Countries I’ve Visited

Croatia, France, Germany, Indonesia, Netherlands, United Kingdom

Countries I’ve Lived In
