ABOUT ME

Hello... my name is Phil and I am a 29 year old ED doctor in Adelaide, Australia. I love cooking (my specialty being curries), football, traveling the world and meeting new people.

PHILOSOPHY

Never really thought about this one. However, I believe that travel is truly the only way to become open-minded. Understanding different cultures & different ways of life makes you a more rounded and tolerant individual.

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

This is my first time using CS, but I have heard so much about it and thought I should get involved. I have been lucky to have traveled a lot in my life already and lived in Lille, France for a year where I met people from all across the globe. I would be happy to welcome people into my flat in Leeds city centre, on the back of the welcoming and warmth that so many people have shown me...

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I am pretty new to couchsurfing, but we used it in July 2012, while hitching through France. We met some fantastic people who showed us the best their city had to offer and we were incredibly grateful for them for taking their time to make us enjoy our stay.

Interessi

I love traveling, movies, football and juicing. I also love cooking, which is one of my favourite ways to relax.

Una cosa incredibile che ho fatto

I taught English in St Louis, Senegal which was an amazing experience. I was also involved with a local football team and took over some shirts (kindly donated from Hull City FC) for their team there.

Insegna, impara, condividi

I can cook a pretty mean curry. From my travels, I have noticed that very few places embrace Indian cuisine quite like we do in England.
