CURRENT MISSION
To see new things, explore different places and discover the world!

ABOUT ME
I am a colourful individual (not just my hair). I love meeting new people and hearing their stories!

I have lived in and around the suburbs of Melbourne, Australia since I was born. I flitter between trying to live a healthy active lifestyle and following my creative passions. This usually keeps me in my room or working with other interesting people to create artistic pieces.

Working with people is one of my other passions. I have been on numerous summer, leadership and rite of passage camps. I love camping and being in nature, so being able to do this while creative a positive and inclusive environment is a plus!

I have spent the last few years studying graphic design and have spent a year working and exploring my own personal artistic projects. I love making things, using my hands and above all being creative! This ties a lot into my character but I don't think i'm ready to settle down with my career just yet. So! I've decided that I needed a break from the career and industry and am spending a bit of time travelling and seeing where the world takes me.

PHILOSOPHY
I have a few mantras I've picked up along the way.

Be yourself.
Choose happiness.
Do whatever.
And Don't Panic!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

For the opportunity to meet a range of different, interesting and unique people.

Interests

I love being outdoors, roaming the world and experiencing new things.

BEING CREATIVE!

Listening to music, playing a myriad of instruments, drawing & writing, playing board games (scrabble is the best!), getting lost in a good book, sports (tennis especially), watching films and catching up with friends.

Dancing (even if you have nowhere to do it but your own living room), rock climbing. Going for a hike or camping is always a plus in life. Plus a few more hobbies that keep me entertained and also offer a great form of procrastination!

Music, Movies, and Books

MUSIC: It's one of my main passions, whether i'm swing dancing to some Glenn Miller or busting out some John Butler on guitar. I love kicking back to some classical, hip hop, metal, rock, funk, electro, acoustic, jazz or anything else with a bit of soul! Always up for being shown something i've never heard before.

BOOKS: I love reading a bit of fantasy or adventure. Lord of the Rings and the Hobbit or the Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy have a special place in my heart. Anything that tells a good story I love reading about (this goes with my movies as well).

MOVIES: Give me a good ol' zombie apocolypse, a badly choregraphed chop suey scene or a world film and i'll be a happy man!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

After high school I decided to take a gap year, save some money working an odd assortment of jobs and fly myself overseas for the first time! This led me to working at a Canadian children's summer camp then travelling through a bit of America and Canada by myself. By the time I returned home 6 months later I had met an amazing bunch of people and made many more friends. The experiences from this trip have nagged me into continuing to adventure overseas whenever I have had the chance!

Teach, Learn, Share

I have a lifetime of different experiences and stories. Also I love sharing my interests and skills!
