About Me

Hi, I have recently quit my job to follow my dream and become a dive instructor.

Originally from London, I was brought up in a village in the country and left the UK in 2009 to move to Melbourne. I have travelled to around 30 countries and am going to be visiting NZ, UK, maybe some of Europe and back to Asia to do my instructors course early 2017.

I'm pretty relaxed, I like a lot of sports, playing and watching, I love the outdoors, eating the local food, drinking the local wine and beer (probably in the other order), a wide taste in music.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on Couch Surfing to meet locals and get to know the best places in town to see.

I have used Couch Surfing only once before with a former girlfriend. I was an amazing experience. We ended up in a 3-star hotel in Banos in Ecuador, with free breakfast and coffee....there is a lot to live up to!!

I am a good cook and was brought up never to turn up empty handed!

Music, Movies, and Books

My favourite movie always changes, it used to be Shawshank redemption, old school I have seen the most, I like a good gangsta movie (British and American), I watch a lot of movies.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Realising that time is more important than money....only took 33 years!!!
