Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
"The world is a book and those who don't travel read only one page". Trying to read every page!

Back in Niseko for another winter! I have a lot of friends visiting this season so apologies in advance if my couch is unavailable.
ABOUT ME
After 5 years living in Banff, Canada I am now based in Japan!! I spent last winter in Hokkaido before travelling and then living in Okinawa for the summer. Now it's back to Hokkaido for some more skiing!
I'm always keen for a couch to surf on but mostly enjoy meeting local people and learning about the place you live. I can't wait to host, surf or catch up with you :)
PHILOSOPHY
"The only aspect of our travels that is interesting to others is disaster."
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
Firstly I'm sorry if I don't reply to your request, there isn't many host's in Niseko (or in Banff) so I get overwhelmed... I'm a keen supporter of CS though and will do my best to at least answer any questions and point you in the right direction.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I have hosted more then I've surfed but the people I've met doing both have been awesome! It amazes me how quickly strangers can become friends and I hope to see everyone I've met through CS again.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Just one?
I've swam with Whale Sharks (worlds largest fish) and stayed at Sal Salis on Ningaloo Reef, AMAZING and it was for work!
I've visited 28 of the American states and all Canadian provinces (but none of the territories). Am now making my way around the Japanese prefectures.
Teach, Learn, Share
Western Australia (my home state) is over 2.5 million square kilometres. That makes it 3.6 times bigger than Texas, 4.6 times bigger than France and 11 times bigger than the UK. Yet its home to only around two million people (minus 1, as I haven't been home in a while)
What I Can Share with Hosts
Good times!!! Plus if you're interested in photography or skiing/snowboarding I definitely have some tips and stories to share.
