About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To discover, and be discovered
(Currently on a year long travel)

ABOUT ME

I'd like to think i'm a fairly relaxed guy who likes to go with the flow and see what happens.
I really enjoy meeting new, diverse and like minded people.
Quite adventurous who will give everything a go!

PHILOSOPHY

You only live once. Why not make the most of it?

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Meeting new people, Sharing thoughts, stories and a laugh.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

The more I travel, the more experience i am gaining. I have found CS to be the best way to really understand a country and its culture.

I think one of the the only good things about not travelling is that I'll be able to host Couchsurfers myself!
Before embarking on this current trip, my girlfriend and I have been lucky enough to host a few couchsurfers. It's great to be able to complete the CS circle of hosting and surfing!

Sport - Surfing, AFL football.

Travel!- Its the best education i've had so far!

Music - I'd like to think i can dance to anything with a beat. (I didn't say that I dance well though)
