About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Traveling and absorbing as much culture as possible in each place i visit

ABOUT ME

I am a super happy and fun loving guy who always has a smile on his face and a new adventure to speak of... i hope your part of my next one!

Grew up just out of Melbourne, Australia, Moved to the west coast (Perth) and spent a few years there, before heading overseas.

Have travelled thru Sth East Asia, Middle East & northern Africa, Europe, North America and South America.

Currently living in Whistler, B.C. (Past 3 years) and planning another visit to see my girlfriend in Peru later this year, before moving back to Australia.

PHILOSOPHY

'Do not lead me for i may not follow, do not follow me for i may not lead, but walk beside me as my friend'

- Albert Camus (It would be a bit rich to claim it as my own 'personal philosophy' - but it does strike chord with me nonetheless)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

At this point i can only a 'surfer' - however as a surfer i think i can bring a pretty good time to anyone i stay with. I have a great sense of humor, always keen for a beverage and a tall tale or two and am super laid back and easy to get along with (no awkward moments i promise)

When i return to Australia i look forward to repaying the favor and hosting a few surfers myself!!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Just a newbie at this... waiting to have my CS cherry popped!!

Interests

Snowboarding, Surfing, Running, Travel, Interacting with new and exciting people

More than anything just getting out there. seeing as much of this world as i can, and meeting some good people along the way!
