CURRENT MISSION

To see all the things, to hear all the music, to taste, smell and feel all this little old world has to offer

ABOUT ME

I was born and bred in the world's most liveable city (suck it Vancouver). That being said, liveable is boring, and I want to see the world and everything in it. I'm a presenter on Australia's national youth radio station, and I get paid to discover new Aussie music. I'm also journalist, covering Asia and the Pacific for the ABC. I love music, theatre, film, and all things arty. I want to see the world's art, get to know the world's cities and ski until the slopes of the world are shredded.

PHILOSOPHY

You have one life, you're here to make the most of it, I don't regret anything, there's no time and no point.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I want to host some awesome world citizens. I love travelling and I want to meet some new people, make connections and show off the best city in the world! I know it well and someone might as well benefit from that.

None yet. More keen on hosting and maybe getting some exchanges happening!

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies: I'm a massive cinephile, but there's no room in my realm for mediocrity, it either has to be incredibly good, or hilariously awful. My favourite filmmakers are PT Anderson, Darren Aronofsky, The Coen Brothers, Ivan Reitman. I have too many favourite films and love any genre, as long as it's done well.

Music: I have eclectic tastes, I love Australian music as well as indie rock. The Black Keys, Arcade Fire, Boy & Bear, The Jezabels, Cloud Control, Yeasayer, The xx, Kimbra, The Beatles, Blur, Bon Iver, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, The Killers, Vampire Weekend

Books: Harry Potter series, The Time Traveller's Wife, The Lovely Bones, Animal Farm, Watchmen, Holding the Man, Mysterious Skin, High Fidelity, Middlesex, Perfume: The Story of a Murderer, Memoirs of a Geisha, The Importance of Being Earnest
