ABOUT ME

I'm from the Central Coast of NSW, Australia and until recently was living there with 5 of my best friends.

This is a video I made of a trip to Iran in February 2017, including snowboarding in Dizin and Darbandsar, and checking out the Caspian Sea.

PHILOSOPHY

Fun is fun

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

We've hosted lots of people at our house on the Central Coast and I've been lucky enough to be hosted by some absolute legends in California, Iran, Georgia, Ireland, Spain and the U.K.

Not afraid to sleep in tight/uncomfortable situations - whatever you can offer is more than enough!
(In Gudauri, Georgia we fit 7 people and all their snowboard gear in a tiny one-bedroom apartment...for a week. My buddy Sam and I slept in the kitchen on two tiny mattresses!)
