I’ve been in Canberra for about 7 years now since moving from the coast.
I've recently returned home from an amazing trip around Europe and now have been inspired to start making travel a large part of my life.
At the moment I'm working as a carpenter and massage therapist while deciding on where the next adventure will be.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

The most positive and invaluable experiences I've had in travel, whether overseas or close to home, have been the privilege and chance to see, appreciate and learn about other walks of life, other ways of living and differing perspectives on life.
When I heard about this it seemed like the perfect opportunity to do just that. To be able to not only experience that to a greater extent in my future travels but also to be able to assist others in doing the same.

Musik, Filme und Bücher

I don't have a TV...I guess that's enough said.

I grew up playing the piano but no longer have access to one. I would like to start playing gain soon!

I have in recent times started enjoying reading a lot more. Not so much fiction but anything where a can learn something interesting from which can be applied in my life. I would have to say my favourite book so for is The Art of Loving by Erich Fromm

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

Loved sky diving!

Recent amazing/scary thing was deciding to go caving somewhat unprepared, being over an hour underground, suddenly realizing I had no idea where I was and having an overwhelming feeling of being trapped. Was a really good feeling to finally see the sun again!

Lehren, lernen, teilen

Teach:
- I really enjoy the interchanging of experiences and knowledge so if there is anything within my power to teach and you are willing to learn...

Learn:
- If there is anything you could teach me about a new culture that would be great.
- I’m always looking for new things to cook so any new ideas would be welcome.
- "when you talk, you are only repeating what you already know. But when you listen, you may actually learn something new." - Dalai Lama

Share:
- I’m a big foodie so always willing to cook when I can. I try to stick as closely as I can to a whole food diet.

Was ich mit Gastgebern teilen kann

It would be really great if I'm able to spend some time with whoever it is I'm staying with as I think our time is one of the greatest things we can share. I understand this can't always be the case though due to peoples busy schedules.
Definitely happy to do some cooking!
I will also need to keep my massage practice up while travelling so feel free to ask me for one.
