ABOUT ME

I am 25 year old traveller. I have worked in Sydney for the last year as a Personal Trainer and like to keep fit and healthy. After studying Sport and Exercise Science at University I have spent the majority of my time travelling around the Eastern side of the map (SE Asia, Oceania etc). I travel in order to seek new experiences in my life and immerse myself in as many differnet cultures.

PHILOSOPHY

Dont live life in moderation, as life without risk is a life haved live. Think of others before thinking about yourself, for spreading happiness to others is the purpose of life. Momey doesnt provide happiness unless spent helping others to be happy. Perform an Act of Kindness each and every day, and the World will turn out just fine.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Have shown couchsurfers around my local town and attended a CS meet up in Paris. Would like to surf my way around Australia and USA, hoping to return the favour when I arrive back in England after my travels.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Attended a very lively CS meet up in an Irish pub in Paris. Great mix of nationalities all joined together by Guiness, that is all I remember from that night, how do the Irish do it.

Interests

My interests include amateur photography (very amateurish, bordering on infantile), exercising and playing/watching a variety sport, football is the greatest game on earth. Anything thrill seeking, bungy/skydvie/mountaineering/diving etc etc. Sitting in good company chatting/watching tv while having a glass of wine. Oh yeah, also love games, whether its computer games, board games, card games, drinking games, mind games (wait no, I hate mind games, urghh)

Music, Movies, and Books

Literally any music, people always say this but check my ipod, varies from classical/disney/musicals/jazz to rap/rock/dubstep/uk garage.

I love Martin Scorcesse movies, mainly because Leo Dicaprio is a genius in them. Star wars was my childhood (reservations about the new ones being made). Any Jonny Depp film is a winner usually, Benny and Joon, whats eating Gilbert Grape, Blow.

As for Tv, the American Office, also any Ricky Gervais related show, or a comedy such as Peep Show or Mighty Boosh

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Swimming with sharks in Thailand
Bungy jumping and Skydiving in New Zealand
Reaching the Summit of Mount Kilimanjaro, Tanzania, with my Dad, proud moment.

Teach, Learn, Share

Would love to learn how to ride a horse, play the piano or speak Spanish/Italian so I can have a flowing conversation.

What I could teach you is how to make an awesome Strawberry Cheesecake, Gelato and its many flavours and a contradiction to what I just said, keeping fit and playing sport as I am a qualified personal trainer and sports coach.
