Overview
About Me
I'm very layed back, well travelled and easy going and though a bit older young at heart
I'm mixed Chinese/Australian brought up mostly in Australia but being mixed think I have a good feel for the multicultural world we live in.
For the last 7 year's I've lived on a sailboat cruising around south east Asia and my boat is currently in southern Taiwan where I'll spend another year, you could say I'm living the dream though sometimes it's hard work.
The beauty of my mode of travel is I get to take my home with me, I get to stay long periods in different places so get to know locals and involved in the local communities I live in. It also makes long travel affordable and if I don't like the neighbors I move haha.
I believe in 'paying it forward' so couchsurfing is good for this.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I love travel, meet different people from different cultures. I think the best way to learn about a place and people is to live with them.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Driving a 3 wheeler Reliant that cost 150quid from London to Italy where I abandoned it and continued by ferry to Greece
