ABOUT ME
I'm a doctor but in my spare time I travel around the world. Training to become an anaesthetist and eventually I plan to work in third world countries and do a lot of volunteer work - but first I have to finish my training! In the mean time I am trying to learn every language and trying not to take myself too seriously!
PHILOSOPHY
Nothing is more important than people spending time together to broaden their minds, promote harmony, peace and fellowship, and dedicating themselves to serving humanity in the most effective way possible. If we all dedicated our lives to improving ourselves and also the lives of others, the world undergo an incredible transformation overnight.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
Now that I have a house, I am happy to host some couch surfers whenever we can. We have a spare room with two single bed and we can can accomodate 2 couch surfers.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I had an amazing time in small German towns when I first began couch surfing. Couchsurfers are cool and it brings warmth to my heart that people are so generous. I've also couch-surfed in South America - amazing, amazing people and friends. More recently I couch surfed with Jessi in San Francisco. Have hosted a few lovely people so far in Australia. Since then we moved to a beautiful apartment in Brisbane and we are ready to host.

Teach, Learn, Share
Well, I can teach you my philosophy about how to be happy all the time (it's pretty easy!) and I guess I could teach you some English, Persian or Chinese. I could also probably teach you first aid!
