CURRENT MISSION

To take really a long walk

ABOUT ME

Born in Chicago and living in Sydney for the past nine years, I not only have a really bizarre accent, a shameful appreciation of summer and a love of beer, but also that Australian wandering spirit and that nauseating American enthusiasm. I find it hard to sit still, so it's best to never stop moving.

PHILOSOPHY

The only thing in your way is what you put there; Life is about being alive- open, free, compassionate, honest and visceral.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm not in a position to host at the moment, but I am more than happy to show people a different side of Sydney.

I've not had a lot of experience, but I have been lucky enough to stay with some great people and meet some great guides along the way.
