About Me

I hale from the Northern Beaches of Sydney, Australia. I generally am a pretty optimistic and joyful person and enjoy a good laugh while keeping things light. I like to dabble in a whole range of things and experiences- one of the major draw cards of traveling I guess. I'm currently on a four month trip with my partner Abby.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

A fantastic application to be able to network internationally with travellers and hosts. I find it fascinating to hear and learn from people who have vastly different experiences to me. It's also a bit of a buzz to both help out strangers as well as receive kindness from strangers.

Interests

People, sports (particularly Basketball, Rugby & Surfing), reading novels (crime and popular fiction), music, keeping & healthy while also enjoying a good beer (or an average one...). I'm also a bit of an Xbox geek when I have downtime (Fifa anyone?).

Music, Movies, and Books

My favourite music was recorded in the 60s & 90s, but pretty open to a whole range of things depending on moods (my Spotify play list is a range of contradictions).

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Bungee jumping in Queenstown, New Zealand. I have quite the fear of heights, making the experience super memorable for me.
