My name is Kieren and I come from Adelaide in South Australia. I am passionate about trying new foods, keeping fit, meeting new people and enjoying the most out of life. I am a cook by profession and I love experimenting in the kitchen In July 2021 I decided to have a career break and leave Australia to go on a Working Holiday through New Zealand. In November 2022 I went on an extended trip through parts of the Mediterranean, the Caucasus and the Middle East. In early 2025 I began the next extended trip through Asia It would be great to catch up with anyone in the CS community wherever I am in the world!

Dlaczego jestem na Couchsurfing
To meet and learn from fellow travellers and local people. I believe we can all learn and benefit from each other's knowledge and experiences, despite our language and cultural differences. It would be great while staying in a new country to have interesting discussions about your life, while also discovering the local area where I can find some of the 'off the beaten path' attractions and great local food!

I absolutely love House, Jazz, Techno, Funk, Disco, Garage music. Some of my favourite tracks include: - 'Gypsy Woman (She's Homeless)' by Crystal Waters - 'Where Love Lives' by Alison Limerick - 'The Secret Life of Us' by Dave Lee - 'Big Fun' by Inner City - 'Go' by Moby - 'We Magnify His Name' by Floorplan - 'Bar a Thym' by Kerri Chandler - 'Deep Burnt' by Pépé Bradock I tend to be most interested by speculative fiction when it comes to reading novels, and some books I have really enjoyed reading over the years include: - '1984' by George Orwell - 'Atlas Shrugged' by Ayn Rand - 'Sherlock Holmes' stories by Arthur Conan Doyle - 'The Man in the High Castle' by Philip K.

Jedna niesamowita rzecz, którą zrobiłem/am
Becoming a member of an international 'Star Wars' costuming group known as the 501st Legion, and building my own Stormtrooper costume. When I used to be a member of the group, we would wear our Star Wars costumes to raise money for charities and to make people smile, because there is not enough enjoyment in the world :) Below is a link showing a picture of me in my Stormtrooper costume in the Adelaide Airport while following a little boy in a NASA outfit. Very cute! https://www.abc.net.au/news/image/9403870-3x2-940x627.jpg
Ucz, Ucz się, Dziel się
As English is my first language I can provide knowledge about English. I can also provide information about common exercises and fitness routines (I have no qualifications in fitness, but I have a lot of knowledge about fitness due to my past experience from when I used to have a Personal Trainer) I would love to learn: new languages, your culture and traditions, and the best places to find local street food What I can share: what life is like in Australia, my enthusiasm, friendliness and my respect and gratitude for your home
Co mogę zaoferować Hostom
A positive and friendly attitude, happy to help with chores and housekeeping, someone to have a conversation with, providing knowledge about what life in Australia is like :)
