ABOUT ME

21 year old student who loves the outdoors, sport, traveling and following crazy dreams.

I travel the world by skateboard raising money for charity. Yes, i actually skateboard the whole way, up to 150km a day, camping at night, skating, having fun, meeting locals and getting local along the way.

I Successfully skateboarded from Thailand to Singapore , couch surfing along the way in January 2010.

In 2011 I skated from Peru to chile, though the attacama desert.

And in 2012 I skated from Sapporo to Hiroshima in Japan. It was an amazing journey, I camped by lakes, saw wild bears, hung out with samurais, couch surfed with locals, ate okonomiyaki and sashimi and skated down mt fuji.

PHILOSOPHY

Dream, Believe, Achieve

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Over the past few years whilst traveling I have met many people who needed a couch to sleep on. I've given many travelers a place to sleep when they needed it and still keep in touch with those surfers to this very day. I have finally found the CS project and I wish to continue meeting new travelers.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Once while I was living in Australia we had 20 people staying in our 2 bedroom flat. We had only just met these people in town or at the beach and they needed a place to stay so we let them stay on our couches, floor, lawn, balcony.. We had surfers everywhere.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

In Dubai I went up to the top of the worlds tallest tower, breathtaking. But now I would have to say skateboarding through Japan without knowing any Japanese. The kindness of the people was overwhelming. I would always get invited back into local families houses, we couldn't speak the same language, but we has so much fun, fun times are universal
