Hi, I'm Victor. I used to be a professional saxophone player, but now I work in disability care doing crazy shifts in a mental roster, so as a host I might have to get up really early, or get home late, and as a traveller this allows me to take time out at unconventional times!

I'm happy to host people while I'm working, although sometimes I won't have a lot of time to hang out or show you the city. Always down for a chat and a beer after work though:)

I'm currently exploring the joys of traveling alone, I'm happy to stroll around your city just discovering things, but if you'd like to show me the locals' secrets I'm interested! I don't mind getting off the beaten path, and possibly into trouble:)

I can host 2 people easily (spare room with 2 inflatable mats) and 3 people max (somebody would have to sleep on the couch:)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Most travel guides don't know where to find that nice little bar, special little shop or really good restaurant that nobody knows about, but you and I do! Also, I think humour defines and connects people, and wikitravel doesn't make me smile :)

Music, Movies, and Books

Nofx, Cannonball Adderley, Moderat, City & Colour. And a LOT of stuff in between. Show me what you like and I might have some good suggestions:)

Movies and books: yes and yes. Ask me about them when you meet me.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I travelled to Amsterdam for a week to be the best man for my friends' wedding...

While I was taking a 3 month snowboard holiday in Japan....

While I was living in Australia.

Oh, it said one thing? Whoops:)

Teach, Learn, Share

I can talk endlessly about music, travel and street art. And I can cook a thing or two. If necessary, I can combine these two skills (quality of one or both may decrease:)
