ABOUT ME

I'm from a small town by the sea in south eastern Australia. Into almost anything outdoors. I surf, snowboard, kayak, climb, hike. I've been working as an outdoor guide the last couple years.

PHILOSOPHY

Don't really have one.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I got onto couchsurfing.com in 2006 while hitch hiking in Europe. It was great to meet and hang out with locals and it also helped prolong my travels. Since then I've hosted back home in Mornington, I love showing people around my part of the world and hearing about their part and what they've been doing.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've stayed in university dorms in Hungary, homes in Croatia and Scotland, and a fellow ski bum's place in Revelstoke. I've hosted people from France, US, Switzerland, Japan, Italy, Australia, New Zealand and Scotland.

Some of my best surf sessions have been with couchsurfers, amazing meals on the cheap, a house crammed full with no two people with the same accent, student bar in Hungary.
