About Me

I love travelling, adventures and all things ocean and mountains

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I surf because its the best way to travel, seeing places from the eyes of a local, and all the hidden gems and experiences off the tourist trail. Ive met a bunch of super cool people on CS and even some of true friends for life, and had some unforgettable hang outs as well.

Now I'm using to meet drinking buddys when on trips

Interests

I spent 2 years backpacking the world, then I stopped in Hong Kong my favourite place, and have been living there for about 5 years. I'm addicted to the ocean, doing lots of open ocean paddling sports such as outrigger canoeing and dragon boating and fishing. I also love travelling, hiking, boxing, camping and drinking beer and having a laugh and I have 2 little cats, bubble and milk tea haha.
