About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to see as much of this natural planet, before we destroy it

ABOUT ME

In australia you would discribe me as a dinki di all round good bloke. i am honest, sincere,and modesty isnt really my thing so i will let you be the judge when we meet .....

PHILOSOPHY

lets see..... for every action there is an opposite reaction ...this reflects in our daily lives any bad actions we project will find their way back to one, sooner rather than later.... what goes around comes around, oh and i believe in karma too.... so i have some bad karma with taxi drivers lately

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

by bringing my own unique personality, into the mix that is CS....

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Oh where do i start it just keeps getting better . what a great experience the Cs project has been. it has opened my eyes, the world seems like such a small village now, and i have only just started this journey.

Interests

I enjoy cooking, but i have to be in the mood....and love cooking with the moosewood cookbook ...... climbing is my new passion until i take a fall.... and nothing beats getting away for a 4 day hike in the bush with friends..... I cycle most days to work..... scuba dive when i can.. and learn to cross country ski when my friends wish to take a beginner along..... I enjoy giving back what i take out of a community, by offering my services as a guide on bicycle tours around Melbourne and work as a volunteer for cycle events
