ABOUT ME

"If life gives you lemons, make lemonade"
-Riva Starr 2009

"We have 3 lives;
One that we live,
One that we dream,
And one that we remember"
-MBW

"if you're doing what you've most wanted you're fulfilling your purpose in life"

"Smile and the world will smile with you"

The above sum me up I'd say.
I enjoy meeting new people and hearing/learning about their views or sharing new or enjoyable experiences.

If I want to do something I wont just talk about it but never do it, I'll get out there and I'll do it.
I always try to see the best in everything and everyone-I want to enjoy my life.
I say it how it is, it sometimes lands me in trouble but honesty is the best policy.

Sunshine makes me happy.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Currently I'm on a world trip and have met a number of people who rave about this site so have joined.

RIght now I'm keen to meet new people whilst on the road however am unfortunately in no position to host. When I am, my door will be open.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Whilst never having couch surfed via couchsurfing.com I have often wound up spending time with various types in their home - I have always found it a genuine way to meet people and get a true feeling of a city/country/populous.
I'm looking forward to hopefully having many more experiences like this via this site

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

"One amazing thing" - narrowing this down to one is near on impossible.
I could be here all day jotting down "amazing" memories from my lifetime.

The great people I've met on my life journey would probably be the top of the list but how to quantify this?

More tangible life events;
-A naked bungy jump to celebrate my 21st Birthday
-Sky diving over Lake Taupo
-The "Sky Walk" at Hua Shan in China
-Appearing on Vietnamese TV in the gameshow Catchphrase
-Swimming with phosphorus plankton in the sea at night
