About Me

CURRENT MISSION

See as many places as possible, but see them properly

ABOUT ME

Hey

Yeah my name is James, but pretty much everyone calls me Jimmy. I am a 21 year old Australian University student. Studying Civil Engineering and Business Management, good combination I think.

Currently I am studying in Montreal, but the studying part is really just an excuse so that I could get overseas

Got bored with the same old routine in Australia and figured that I better see the world.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

At this stage I am looking to surf my way through a few months in Canada, America and Europe. Eventually I will study in Germany for a few months, so if I have a couch and sweet roommates, I will try to host some people.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I am completely new to the whole CouchSurfing caper. But it sounds like the best way to truly get to know a city.

Books: I don't ever read books, bit lazy, but I need suggestions cause I will be travelling heaps soon.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am trying to teach myself guitar, its not going well.
