I'm not to good at self analyzing sadly... I grew up in a little town called Mudgee known for its wine and honey. From there I moved to Sydney where I studied and worked. Due to my musical nature I met like minded people and played through out the place. People have described me as friendly gentleman with a relaxed personality. I consider myself to be mellow in nature and I try keep harmony with friends and new acquaintances. I should also mention that I enjoy the occasional drink!

I'm currently traveling throughout Europe. During the next three months I would like to explore the numerous cultures / countries Europe has to offer. Through this website I hope to meet and hear other peoples stories!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I believe this website/ community provides a great opportunity for others to meet and gain insight on many places and lifestyles. Once I have completed my travels I hope to flip the coin and provide others with the same opportunity they have provided me.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Traveling through Cambodia using public transport was strangely beautiful for me. Karaoke, incomplete roads, green plateaus and friendly locals are just a few words to describe the bus journeys .

Experiencing an Italian Christmas! My stomach and taste buds were not prepared for the quantity and quality.

Exploring the island of Koh Phangan by scooter was quiet tranquil. Meandering through tropical scenery and discovering towns and beaches left a grin on my face.

One was not enough sorry...
