Generally outgoing, enjoy music, theatre, good coffee and cheap wine. I live alone in a 3 -bedroom house 5 minutes walk from the river and 10 minutes drive to the beach. Strong atheist and left of centre politically so fans of the pope and trump might want to steer clear. Strictly NO SMOKERS not even those who say they won't smoke in the house!

Own room and bathroom, shared toilet. Some help around the house (cooking, washing-up), in the garden (sweeping leaves) or washing the car is always much appreciated.

Can collect from airport for $30. - Uber quote is $42-$55. Shuttle bus is $48 for 1 and $52 for 2

I prefer it if you have some verification with the couchsurfer website.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To help overseas travellers and to get some company from time to time. I enjoy learning about people and their lives, the culture of their home countries and their hopes and dreams.

Music, Movies, and Books

Springsteen (of course) Dylan, Folk and Roots Music. A decent rom com, political thrillers.
