About Me

Hello! I'm 28 years old. I love traveling, hiking, photography and mountain biking. I consider myself to be a warm, friendly, considerate person. If there is anything else you wish to know, please do not hesitate to ask! I used to live in a share house in Surfers Paradise where my housemate hosted many travelers relentlessly over two years, 2-3 people on a quiet night, 4-5 on a busy night, and 11 at once over christmas 2012! Meeting people from across the world has been an amazing experience.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I do not have a place to host from, but am currently building my own ""off the grid" camp on a friends property in the gold coast hinterland. I look forward to hosting many travelers when I am able too! I am currently on a hiking trip in New Zealand, and I am also traveling to Cambodia and Thailand early next year, and wish to meet with locals.

Music, Movies, and Books

Into the wild is my favorite movie. My favorite book is The Fire From Within by Carlos Castaneda, a book written by a shaman about his training with Don Juan, a very powerful shaman and sorcerer. I also love The Alchemist which was written by a man who studied with Carlos Castaneda. I read lots of books on philosophy and spirituality, such as the Kyballion, and Hermetic texts, and have a very large interest in Ancient Egyption Mystery Teachings.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Lived in a hut in the wild for a year, lived with almost no money intentionally for that year as well, on a journey to find happiness and peace within, as opposed to seeking happiness through external pleasures.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach about freedom, the power of the mind, the ways to step into the flow of the universe, instead of fighting the current upstream.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I am a handy man, can fix anything. Will help with chores. I like to create win-win scenarios, meaning that I hope to create an experiance where my hosts feel they have benifeted from hosting me, as much as I have benifited from being hosted in their home.
