About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To learn, grow and experience as much as possible while on this earth!

ABOUT ME

I think, always happy and lots of positive energy would be the way to describe me. I love to have fun, always looking for a pretty good time, I'll give (almost) anything a go.
My general outlook on things is relaxed and logical, i like to keep my body and brain active.

PHILOSOPHY

I am 28 years old and i'm searching for something..... Not sure exactly what yet but i do know that i am very lucky to be here on this earth, it is an amazing place with endless opportunities and i certainly don't want to miss out on anything.....
My hometown of Adelaide is paradise to me, i love it but feel i can't continue to grow as a person if i only stay in one spot, i want to experience all walks of life.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have been backpacking for most of 2008, and since reaching Europe my couch surf contacts have started to grow. I attended a couple of couch surf meet ups in Amsterdam which lead to my first couch stay and many adventures with other couch surfers.
When i get back from my travels my couch will be available and i'm defiantly not shy on showing and sharing adventures and fun times!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Queens Day eve meet and greet in Amsterdam, About 20 surfers, almost all strangers met and danced the night away in the streeets.

Velib bicycle challenge in Paris, 30th May. Was quite fast and challenging but the beers with couch surfers at the end was great.

Music, Movies, and Books

The only book i've read in one day without putting down is "Tuesdays with Morrie", so i guess that would have to be my favorite.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I was is Kona Hawaii in 2006 when earthquakes up to 6.2 on the rector scale shook the ground beneath me, knocking books off the shelves, emptying part of the swimming pool, tearing cracks in buildings.

In Dubai my friends and i naughtily found a way to climb onto the roof of their 50 story apartment block where we sat for hours drinking beer, staring at the palm islands, the Burge Dubai hotel and the millions of flickering coloured lights as we pondered life's opportunity.

Teach, Learn, Share

I ike to have a play with Poi, fire twirling.
I'd would love to be able to speak fluently in other languages, I'm trying to learn a new French word every day....
I sing and am learning to play the guitar one day i would love to be able to do both together.
