About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To enjoy life, no matter who gets in the way!

ABOUT ME

I am an Expat Aussie who has lived in Denver for 8 years. I came here as a Hydrogeologist, but now teach 8th graders science.

I have been very fortunate to travel around the world several times and vist many wonderful countries. Couch Surfing is like a small extention of those travels!

PHILOSOPHY

I live to be happy. This doesn't always work, but I can say that there is always something that brightens up my day, or that makes me thankful for what I have.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have fallen out of a flying aircraft without a parachute and survived (you have ask for the details).
