Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
I've just finished cycling from Vietnam to Paris to raise awareness of climate change. (visit our website if you want to learn more http://bike4afuture.com/) I'm now back in Vietnam and getting back to a more settled lifestyle. I've lived in Vietnam for over 2 years now and am very happy to share my knowledge of the food, drinks, language and interesting places to see with people
ABOUT ME
I'm passionate about saving the world and having fun, and if I can combine the two all the better.
PHILOSOPHY
Making life as good as it possibly can be for myself, my friends and as many other people as I can. Whilst at the same time trying to prevent the impending climate and other environmental catastrophes.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I hosted a bit with my ex wife in Melbourne. Here's our profile http://www.couchsurfing.org/profile.html?id=A0UVFPA
I have also surfed in nearly 20 countries in Asia and Europe.
I'm now renting a room in a house so it's not so convenient for me to host, but always up for meeting people and showing them some of the great places I have discovered since living in Saigon for a year.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
We generally had some fantastic experiences welcoming people into our home in Melbourne. Met some fantastic people and got to view our own city and neighbourhood in a different light too. Making some lasting friendships in the process.
I am now using Couch Surfing to meet some amazing people from around the world.
