About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Travel and football.

ABOUT ME

I can get a bit shy at first but once you get me talking I sometimes won't stop. To summarise about myself, I love travelling, football and music.

Travelled throughout Nepal and India for an expedition with the GE-OS Project, our goal was to record folk music of all cultures. I've travelled to Uluru in January 2012 for 3-4 days, backpacking and hiking around Alice Springs.

As well, I have local destination experience. I've travelled across to Brisbane, Gold Coast, Byron Bay, Melbourne, Adelaide, and Perth.

From June 2015, I embarked on a 7-month travel experience across South America. Visiting Chile, Peru and Argentina during the Copa America 2015.

In May 2017, I was lucky enough to travel to Europe for the first time. Visiting Barcelona, Spain for 1 week experience their food, music and culture. Plus thriving in the presence of many other people during that trip and discussing (or debating?) football.

I take particular interests in musicians, as I love music and find that it's really expressive about anything in life.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I wish to encounter multiple cultures and learn new languages and experiences. Years ago I hosted two (2) German backpackers who were embarking on a Australia-wide road trip.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Getting dreadlocks done in Nepal. Go trekking throughout the foothills of the Himalaya mountains. See a hawk fly above us while we see the sunrise. Have a jam session with backpackers/musicians at a bar in Nepal. Sky Diving by the beach at Wollongong. Seeing Manu Chao and Arctic Monkeys live. Travelling to Melbourne via bus to go see Liverpool FC play at the MCG stadium, my first ever trip to Melbourne.

Anything that's related to the Western Sydney Wanderers and travelling is always amazing, no matter where I go.
