About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To do something more exciting than yesterday

ABOUT ME

In Chongqing, China(was, now between countries). After being in Korea for 2008-09. Left Australia with little planning, just pack bags, leave job and go to Europe. Initially to see World Cup in Germany. Spent majority of time in Sweden and discovered my whole Nordic background. Didn't like the idea of settling in back home (9 to 5 job etc) but China was good compromise(new different country,culture, people and can earn some money too)

PHILOSOPHY

Thats way too deep for me.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Sometimes I might need a couch othertimes I'll be able to return the favour and meet those who will be travelling.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Nothing can be cooler than meeting new people, see how they live and hopefully providing an experience that makes it rewarding for them also.

Interests

When travelling deliberately go out and experience new surroundings and meet new people. Thats what is most rewarding.

  • culture
  • traveling
  • world cup

Music, Movies, and Books

When it comes to movies im easily pleased anything from 1957 to 201-?.
As long as its to commercially produced rubbish for the masses i'll listen to it.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Pullpit Rock, Norway. Centimeters away from death. That makes you feel alive.
Cliffs of Mohar, Ireland. Same as above. I fall/slip. I die. Like a drug. You dangle your legs over a 100 metre drop and want to do it again in 5 minutes time, again.
