About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To find inner peace....

ABOUT ME

I was born and bred in Bundaberg (East coast of Australia). Fortunately due to my alternative minded parents I did not end up like most people of Bundaberg descent! I did not choose a career in Sugar Cane farming or working in the Rum Factory, rather I was introduced to a world of natural and cultural diversity which has stemmed my desire to travel, experience and appreciate the many wonders of this planet!
In terms of personality:

1) I love to do things...I am a very action oriented person, so as long as I am doing something I am content and if I'm not doing something then I am pretty good at finding something to keep me occupied!!

2) I love nature and all things natural. Particularly love birds and frogs. Having chosen to study and work in the environment, I have a deep appreciation for the natural world and a great respect for all living creatures (although granted a slight lesser respect for humans in many cases)!!

3) I am easy going, outgoing and fun loving...

PHILOSOPHY

Carpe Diem!! Sieze the day is the fundamental philosophy that I live by. Life is too short to waste time being idle and I believe that I as an individual must take the initiative to make the most of every minute and equally impotantly have fun doing it!!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

At this stage I am looking at couch surfing as an opportunity to meet people and become more closely familiar and involved with different cultures. I think that this is a great way to open your mind and heart!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have spent some time as a couch surfing guest in eastern Europe and also Costa Rica. Now happy to return the love!

Interests

My passion in life is surfing! Surfing never ceases to challenge and reward me.
