Hi, my name is Nelson. I'm a enthusiastic and fun young Australian traveling around Europe. I worked as a chef for a few years and more recently a carpenter for 2 years as a full-time job. I grew up on a farm in the Southwest of Western Australia, our primary income is from our Business Moombaki Wines. Dad runs the farm and also makes fine wood dining tables and Mum is a recognised Artist (Oils on Canvas) as well as doing the business side of Moombaki.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm Travelling the world and I think Couchsurfing is the best way to explore and have fun in a place. It is also the second best way to meet people (Hitching is the best way).

Interests

I like meeting people, hiking, swimming, running, picnics, going to bars and clubs. I'm flexible and always open to trying new things.
