ABOUT ME

I am a person who enjoys playing music, reading books, learning to fix and build things, and pottering in the garden. I also enjoy conspiring with others on how to overthrow the current system and build a post-capitalist world. I play in old-time bands and teach early childhood music to very small children.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

When I was on exchange in Santiago, Chile I was an active participant in the couchsurfing community. Through Couchsurfing Santiago I made some excellent friends and did a lot of bikeriding around the city. I've also hosted folks at previous houses of mine in Sydney, although not at my current one. I slept on some lovely couches in Chile, Argentina and Uruguay, and met some pretty good people too!
