Overview
About Me
I am honest, outgoing, peaceful, reliable, friendly and very open-minded.
I love playing guitar, like I love nothing in the world. I am very fearsome of arthritis in that regard. Oh did I say that I am probably the worst hypochondriac you'll ever meet. When I am not playing the guitar, I might be writing songs for myself or for my band, Territories. As a sport I like bouldering/ climbing atop things and seeing the world from above. I also enjoy being outdoors either hiking, cycling, or just throwing around a frisbee or kicking a ball.
I love languages and playing with them to create cringeworthy embarrassing puns. I enjoy reading books and all the other things that have text, but also watch movies and shows of all genres. I am a huge nerd, who can spend hours browsing the internet and its memes. I happen to get caught up reading interesting articles on wikipedia or lose track of time playing computer games more often than I care to admit. I am gladly distracted from them though!
Musically I enjoy fine tunes ranging from jazz and swing to indie/ alternative rock to metalcore to metal and crossovers. I am particularily fond of the Perth-based progressive metal/ rock band Karnivool. When nobody is looking, I like to expressively dance to any type of music.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I would like to get to know the people in a country, make new friends, form strong bonds across great distances and along with that get a different, local perspective. A new dimension from which to approach a problem.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
In Australia a wild flying-fox climbed onto my arm during a storm when I held the branch still, that it tried to sleep on. It's not really something that I have had much to contribute to but it was amazing for me nonetheless.
What I Can Share with Hosts
I can share my pragmatism, lend an ear, engage in brainstorming of all sort, be helpful and attentive, but mostly awaken their lust for adventures!
I'd also gladly jam along to whatever instrument they might be playing!
