Aussie now living in New York.

Almost everything interests me and I like keeping an open mind so I usually will get along with someone. I'm very relaxed and will always enjoy learning more about someone's passion.

Unfortunately with my roommates I cannot currently host.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

The people are always the best part of travelling and any place. In my travels I've come to learn you've never really seen a place unless you've been there with locals. Sights are just overrated 80% of the time. So I'm always looking to couchsurf. That goes both ways so I'm also always happy to show people around Brooklyn / New York.

First couchsurfing experience was just a weekend trip up to Sydney where I was shown an awesome time and am now good mates with the host. Was a great way to visit a place. Can't wait to do it again. Couchsurfing in Brazil a couple times during World Cup was also amazing as well as all of my time in Canada.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Spent a night in a tree with about 20 wild elephants below.

Teach, Learn, Share

I think the meaning of life is to connect.
Be it with movies, food, nature, door knobs whatever!
But the strongest connections are with people.
And the strongest connection with them is love.

With the tools to awesome connections being a strong sense of identity and belonging, and openness to vulnerability.
