About Me

Pretty solidly based in Hobart for the time being, I'm taking a break from study so I can concentrate my energies on generally having a good time. If you're into live music (especially of the electronic variety) I can point you in the right direction! Always up for outdoor shenanigans so if you're going for a trek, rock climbing or anything of that variety if I've got the day off, I'd say I'm probably keen.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Whatever is going at the time, being hosted, hosting, hanging out, showing people around, anything is fine with me!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Awesome! I'v made some of my best friends through CS as well as having had many an adventure with hosts, guests and travel parters alike, and I look forward to meeting many more CSers in the future.

Interests

Live music, anything outdoors (rock climbing, trekking, etc. etc.), artsy stuff (usually consisting of looking at, but also sometimes creating it) , trying to speak Chinese, bush doofs(outdoor raves if you're not familiar with the Aussie slang), Satyananda Yoga.... Various other things that I'm sure you'll find out about if you meet me!

Martin (A Game of Thrones etc.), The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galexy series by Douglas Adams, The Lord of the rings trilogy and the Hobbit by J.R.R Tolkien, Mahabharata by Krishna Dharma, Shantaram by Gregory David Roberts, the Harry Potter series by J.K Rowling, Is Paris Burning by Larry Collins and Dominique Lapierre, Freedom at Midnight by by Larry Collins and Dominique Lapierre, The Dark Materials trilogy by Philip Pullman, A Suitable Boy by Vikram Seth.etc. etc.

Music - Is what I base most of my time around, one way or another! Psychedelic bass (doofdoof music) and gypsy/folk are what I'm usually getting down to these days.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Ask me when we meet.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am happy to share my knowledge with anyone that is interested, be it to do with music, travelling experiences, or whatever takes your fancy at the time. I play around with a couple of instruments and like to try my hand at new things, so always keen to try something else (whether or not I'm any good at it is another story) vise versa. If anyone has experience in using Ableton or Traktor, any help is appreciated, as they are confusing! I'm currently studying Mandarin, so language exchange can also be a thing.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Whatever seems right in the situation, be it cooking a meal, teaching something, hanging out in general... As I said, whatever seems like a good thing to do!
