About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To endure more journeys and adventures greater than the last. To meet and get to know, respect and understand people along the way.

ABOUT ME

I love life, adventure and the remote and rugged outdoors. I like to meet people but will let you know what I think sooner than later! This had ended many a relationship

PHILOSOPHY

Destiny is in my own hands. Perserverance, hard work and endurance may not be as poetic or romantic as I may wish, but they sure do get the job done!
Whatever it is I wear it on my sleeve or chest. No point second guessing a persons intentions.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I enjoy socialising more doing something. Currently I am involved in the Dog program in our local community which means caring for thoes that are loved and putting down the injured or sick. I helped Coordinate our local Art and Music Festival called the Bak'bididi Festival Ramingining. [Should come and visit when it is on!]

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have always been a couch surfer. I am yet to be one via this organsied community. I knew I was not the only one but didn't realise that people who are prepared to take a chance could be so organised!!
My philosophy: Take a change and what ever you recieve is your reward. (I have spent many days walking karma in my favour before I have recieved a lift!). As for trying out a couch, I can't wait!

Interests

Outdoors: Love being remote and doing something a little risky. Like to Rockclimb: Kayak: Ski: MTB: Longboard: Surf... Pretty much anything and everything that involves a little rush from nature.
Photography and media: Love taking photos, but it is always on the move. I do the above and take photos when I can.
Music: I can't believe I have made it to Thirty and have just discovered Frank Zappa!! Pretty much into anything.

Music, Movies, and Books

Don't read much. Movies will choose the actions stuff first, but enjoy all genres. Same goes for music. I am finding lately I am more impressed with a book (because i don't read often), or music than i am with a movie. I am finding that recent movies are a real let down as directors loose themselves in the insolvent cross marketing climate of desperate greed etc.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Seen a lot of Australia. Have a lot more to see. Enjoy working in small remote communites as you get to really know the people and place. But I do miss the other adventures such as skiing at night, building igloos (as best i can in Australia!) sleeping next to a roaring rapid, or beach and laying down to feel the repeated motion of the days enjoyment repeat before slumber. I have too many to name! Probably hunting wild animals are my most recent adventures.

Teach, Learn, Share

The more I live. The more I realise that I don't fit with the social norm, and don't have much time for the people that do. I do understand the necessities of the other but look forward to meeting people of the same ilk. Life journeys can be very different and varied but still cross paths or parallel each other for a time. I welcome this as each interaction is a learning experience.
