Fun loving traveller keen to see the world, snowboard, adventure and enjoy anything that has a motor.

Plan for the immediate future is to travel through canada and the US and take a heap of photos to document our adventure. By the time Nathan And I finish our road trip we will have almost driven horizontally around the world!

As of 16th September we're now in Houston Texas and have covered 26,000+ km's (16,000+ miles) and have only been able to do so with the generosity of the couchsurfing community.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Great way to meet people and truly experience the culture of a place you visit as the local couch surfers are able to provide great recommendations for places to travel, eat, adventure. The people you travel with always bring back the greatest memories and share the best stories.

I love the concept of couch surfing and believe it brings a good sense of hospitality and responsibility to the members to represent their countries and themselves well. The experiences i've had with couch surfers so far has been extremely positive and i've met some of the nicest and genuine people.
