CURRENT MISSION

Have the best time possible on my next adventure in America

ABOUT ME

I am an outgoing Aussie who, having traveled to many corners of the world and being moved by what he saw, loves meeting like minded people. I am just as comfortable telling light-hearted stories as having serious discussions about topical issues. I am not a fan of being closed-minded so seek strongly to stop myself from those tendencies by seeking out alternative truths. The truth always tends to be somewhere in between two viewpoints and looking at anything from a different perspective is always a good thing.

PHILOSOPHY

Learning is a lifelong process - Learn and grow as a person.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am entirely new to this project but hope to help build the community by encouraging others to let go of the fear and seek out an alternative viewpoint.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I am a CS virgin - will update this field when I have lost my virginity.

Interests

Reading, Investments, playing guitar, rugby and football. Traveling to other countries and getting the most out of other cultures by learning other languages.
Checking the validity of traditional wisdom - which tends to be long on tradition and short on wisdom.

Music, Movies, and Books

What started as an obsession for fantasy fiction has been taken over scarily by business and investment books. I am trying to seek balance by alternating one business book for one of something else. I am also interested in books about how things work, the natural universe and ourselves. Either way, reading is and always will be a strong part of my life.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Sticking a wad of coca-leaves in my mouth and running with my best friend from Aguas Calientes to the top of Macchu Pichu to watch the sunrise over the ruins.
