Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Like to host people for short times, best on weekends when i'm not working, otherwise there is a lot of down time. Keen to travel with people as well when I have time off and am overseas.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Mostly good, sometimes strange, always exciting

Interests

Without sounding too cliche, whilst traveling I love just getting lost, forgetting maps, and exploring back alleys and side streets, eating off the street, and trying things the local way if possible. Thats not to say I wont fall into the odd tourist trap of a theme park or full moon party.

Im into hiking, camping, swimming, and local culture and food.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Sailing a tall ship around tasmania
Hiking the Annapurna in Nepal
Hiking Inca Trek
Working with an NGO in Cambodia
town exchange in Japan

all travel so far has been amazing, but at home My first memory as a child was when I was about 3, its of my running around in this waterfall near where I grew up, after bushwalking with my grandparents, I reckon it's a cool memory.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm not really sure what I can teach, I make a mean pizza, and cook an alright salad.... I can crack a whip?

To learn, I love hearing new languages, and trying to understand them, and also enjoy food, so learning new ways of cooking would be rad.

Countries I’ve Visited

Bolivia, Cambodia, Canada, Germany, Japan, Laos, Morocco, Nepal, New Zealand, Peru, Thailand, United States

Countries I’ve Lived In
