About Me

ABOUT ME

Have been trekking on and off again for the past 20 years. Have been around Europe, America (North & South), Asia & Africa.

I'm pretty chilled out, enjoy kicking back with a beer and a chat (politics, sport or anything)

My apartment is ten minutes from the city via train with bus connections to Coogee Beach.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet interesting people from around the world, to get inside tips on city secrets and to save a few dollars along the way.

Interests

Enjoy grabbing a cup of tea (or beer depending on the time of the day) and having a good chat about most anything. Other interestes include reading, basketball and movies.
