CURRENT MISSION

Perfecting the art of social organisation

ABOUT ME

Dual Australian/American citizen, currently living in Sydney Australia. I've traveled all over the world and lived in the US, South Africa, and Australia.

PHILOSOPHY

A mid life retirement (or several of them) is better than one long end-of-life retirement.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have a large social circle in Sydney of internationally minded people and also organize social events for a group of 5000 expats living in Sydney.

If you're an expat in Sydney and want to meet other expats to party or to join my free fitness bootcamp, then come along.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I joined this site back in 2005 or so before it became what it is today. I've got lots of documented and undocumented couchsurfing experience.
