Aussie from the beaches of Sydney. Live in Strasbourg France for 3 years, now I've returned to my hometown of Sydney again.

It is rare that one can choose what happens to you. But you can almost always choose who you are and who you want to be. I don't let the world define me; the world doesn't know me that well.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I joined couch surfing in strasbourg. Went to many of the social events and hosted a few guests, and enjoyed such a warm and generous group of people. SofarI haven't taken haven't surfed on another's couch.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have created from little more than drawing and an idea. Something that the universe has never seen before, and I have done this many times. Creating substances that do not exist anywhere else. I have been the only one to lay eyes on them and pass judgment that they are not useful and have been discarded. Such is my work.

For my travels, I've gazed into an active volcano, eaten scorpion, ridden waves many times height, floated drunk down the mikong, flown through the air to be caught by a trapeze artist, that's what I can remember right now.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach some contact juggling skills, as well as some basic fire staff routines. Being a scientific researcher I have a broad knowledge on how/why things work, and some applications to world. So that means: basic electronics, computers, chemistry. I'm not a trained musician, so I doubt I can teach any real skills in that area.
