Overview
About Me
Hello and thanks for reading!
I’m a 21 year old Australian, travelling with my partner Kaia.
(https://www.couchsurfing.com/users/2016219535?utm_campaign=profile_share&utm_source=couchsurfing-ios)
After many jobs from sales to landscaping, window cleaning, resort management and back again,
I’ve set my sights on a new horizon… the horizon?
Born and raised in Queensland’s Sunshine Coast I spent my early years in a small town at the top of the Blackall range, where I stayed until two years ago I moved to Brisbane. After five months there, I left and headed west, for work/career reasons. However that wasn’t really a passion of mine
However, my sense of adventure (and my Kaia) leads me down a path to mountains, rivers, valleys, caves, craters, boats, oceans, VOLCANOES and with any luck, to YOU!

Music, Movies, and Books
Australian country music. I am reasonably well versed in traditional Australian songs. I have been slowly shifting my music to a more fast-paced and joyous, style of recent.
I’ve spent many years getting into reading and very few actually reading
That said, I have read a few good books, such as think and grow rich by napoleon hill, the richest man in Babylon, Harry Potter until book 4, quite a few Roald Dahl books I like them.
I am a big Rocky fan. However, It has been said ‘Forest Gump’ or ‘The Secret Life of Walter Mitty’ is my favourite movie.
I recently watched a movie called the legend of Baron T’oa, which I loved it, it’s a NZ wrestling movie.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I worked out in rural Queensland for 11 months! In which time I saw some pretty amazing things, but I only ever had one goal, to photograph an emu before I left.
Ask me about it! I may even have a picture…
Cool things I’ve done:
Scuba dove in Nusa Penida and saw 4 manta rays
Sang guns and roses at a small warung in denpassar with local friends
Played soccer with local kids at sunset like a movie ending
Climbed Mount Batur and Kawah Ijen (Blue fire volcano!!!)
Black water rafting and caving and Abseiling
Swum in Lake Tekapo
Played with Snow!!!!
Teach, Learn, Share
I love to learn about new cultures and very much so, the values of other lifestyles. I am always interested in nature and geological formations and natural life & history.
Therefore I love hiking, camping and climbing. I love taking pictures of great views and animals and I am thinking about making a magazine.
I’ve been a martial arts instructor for three years, until quite recently. I studied traditional Tae Kwon-do. Which although not particularly Australian, is great fun!
What I Can Share with Hosts
Stories, laughs and fun times.
English skills! Learning Australian lingo!
I’ve 4 years of Tae Kwon-do and several years in athletics (sprinting), soccer and cricket! And many stories to share! Also I like making spaghetti.
