CURRENT MISSION

To explore the world on a shoestring budget!

ABOUT ME

I am trying to become a fit and active person. The road is long and hard and uni keeps getting in the way. I have traveled around the East-Coast of Australia fairly extensively.
I enjoy a whole variety of music - but I love classic rock. I love learning - although I am not very good at it. I enjoy reading - primarily science fiction/fantasy. My favourite authors include: Terry Pratchett and others that I can't quite remember.

PHILOSOPHY

My personal philosophy is that no matter how bad things are, or how bad they get, tomorrow might be better.

I live my life to enjoy the small things. The things people take for granted. At the moment I do take quite a few things for granted and I am trying to start appreciating them a lot more.

I am a reasonably optimistic person by nature. Fairly well rounded and slightly off-kilter (i.e. weird). But that just adds to my charm :P

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

At the moment I have just joined. As such, I have not participated very much and university work keeps me quite busy.
I am hoping I will become a more active participant in the CS Project and I am informing my friends of it as well.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I currently have not had any CouchSurfing experiences, I am looking to rectify that with my upcoming trip to Ecuador. Also we own a cat just fyi.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One amazing thing I have done is skydive. I have a slight fear of heights, so skydiving was at once exhilarating and exceptionally scary.

Teach, Learn, Share

There are two things that I believe will help you no matter what occupation you find yourself in:

- Speed reading
- Improving your memory

These two - seemingly - simple attributes can change your life dramatically. At the moment I am still a novice on both of these, however, I do have the necessary information at my disposal to improve them.
