About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To have fun...!

ABOUT ME

I'm a Photographer from Australia who specialises in documenting the work of charities (NGO's) in developing countries through photos, video, interviews and audio grabs. I love travel, meeting new people, good food, performance, art, learning about other cultures, and getting outdoors.

PHILOSOPHY

You never know when you're time will be up and so get out there and enjoy every second.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

My ex partner and I hosted a lot of couch surfers at our place in Sydney though I have never done it myself (stayed on others' couches). Keen to get involved further though!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

We met some really fabulous people and made some lifelong friends. All in all, it's always been very positive.

Interests

I love travel, meeting new people, good food, performance, art, learning about other cultures, and getting outdoors. I also have a great collection of percussion instruments.

Music, Movies, and Books

My favourite book is ´A Fine Balance¨ by Rohinton Mistry, I also enjoyed The Life of Pi, The God of Small things and so many other books...
My music tastes are pretty varied like most peoples I think,it all depends on my mood.
I really enjoy watching movies but have a pretty terrible memory and so often forget later what happened, who was in it or even whether it was very good. I do like many of Almodovars films though.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Helicopter rescue in Nepal, trek to Everest and K2 base camps, staying in a treehouse high above a forest and using an extensive network of zip wires to get around (Laos)...

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach people about Photography and also give Spanish lessons. Happy to share stories about my world travels too!
