Overview
About Me
I'm just a regular Aussie guy expanding my horizons by travelling as much as I possibly can. I can talk your ear off and then interview you about it and put you on a podcast. I also like sport, a lot. As well as too many TV shows & movies. I also make a mean stuffed chicken breast with amazing potatoes. You should try it...and maybe you will!
I'm back on this app after a few years away and my past experiences weren't that great. It was filled with pretty rude people who aren't willing to have a discussion about anything outside of requests. I'm here to meet people and make friends and connections around the world as I travel and explore. I haven't been in a position since I've been on this app to host, hence why that hasn't been something I've done.
I would very much appreciate courtesy if I request a couch to stay on and some nice explanations of why you don't want to host would be appreciated if that's your decision. A simple bit of courtesy goes a long way as I learn how to use this app! Everyone was new at some point on this app and I will message people with courtesy and respect and would appreciate the same!
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
As I travel I love meeting people from around the world so would be great to connect with like minded people to learn the neighbourhoods and areas of a variety of places I'm looking at visiting. I would also love to turn those experiences into life long friendships and great segments on my podcasts.

Music, Movies, and Books
I love a variety of everything really, this might be the most difficult question to answer. Music I love mainly dance/techno and really like most things. My iPod Classic (yes I'm old school) has too many songs on it to go through. Movies? Gosh...the greatest movie of all time is 'Jurassic Park' so that's obvious. Also all the fun and great ones, Star Wars, James Bond...so many. TV is the same, although the greatest TV show is 'Third Watch' and I'll fight you over that statement even though I'm not violent and would probably cower in an argument and agree with you but make you watch 'Third Watch' anyway.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Interviewed many notable people including Prince Charles and Michael Schumacher. Oh and I sort of hung up on the Prime Minister of Australia once. That's a fun story....
Teach, Learn, Share
I can teach you so much about Australia and the greatest Australian words you will ever here. Also so much about Formula 1, The Olympics, Survivor and TV shows you didn't even know you needed to know about. This is another open ended part that you need to ask me more about...
What I Can Share with Hosts
My charming and funny personality, Australian words and slang you'll always be using, some good cooking, fun times and recordings of you on podcasts to make you famous. Well...famous is relative but you'll be on a podcast. That's awesome. And maybe a video documentary. That too is awesome. The endless possibilities....
