CURRENT MISSION

See as much as I can in one year

ABOUT ME

One year of travelling has opened my eyes to the world. Not quite ready to return back to the 9-5 in Newcastle so I'm packing my backpack once again for a two week trip in Japan and then back to Sydney where I'm hoping to live for a few years.

Best part of travelling has been meeting new people from all over the world and long may it continue!

PHILOSOPHY

Try everyone at least once

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Surfed a few times and met up for drinks.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've couch surfed twice now, once in Hong Kong and once in Yogyakarta, both were great expereinces.

Interests

Love my music, whether its indie bands or DJ's. Food is a big passion especial food from South East Asia. Really want to get into photography and need to invest in an SLR. I've also become very embarrassed that I can only speak one language so I've started leaning Spanish and hopefully will be fluent in two years time.
