About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I am currently traveling from Australia to central America via, New Zealand, Cook islands, USA and Mexico. I don't really have a mission and don't know what I want to see except to dive as much as I can along the way. I normal travel with single 28L bag but this trip I will drag around all my dive equipment with me.

ABOUT ME

I am from a small town in New Zealand but have been living in a few different places in last few years including Australia where I done a few different jobs, Thailand where I worked as a Dive guide and Malaysia where I run a hostel. The hostel job I found through workaway went for a week didn't leave for a couple months and then couldn't stop going back.
PHILOSOPHY

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have had two truly great experience through couch surfing. I decide I had to couch surf in Sri Lanka because the tourist are so separate from the locals there. I wanted to know the true sri lanka just not the tourist areas that I kept seeing. It worked out amazingly I visited a historic site on my host farm and even attended a buddhist funeral.

Interests

While traveling through out Asia I fell in love with Scuba diving and quickly took it up as my profession. I did take a break from this when I moved back to Australia.
