Why I'm on Couchsurfing
Connecting and sharing experiences with free, open people are my two draw cards to couch surfing. I'm a big fan of swimming in cold water, and am always looking for others who will take the plunge with me!
Music, Movies, and Books
Mild Orange is smooth music to any one's ears, particularly mine.
One Amazing Thing I've Done
Outward Bound. Realised that life isn't about reaching a destination, but experiencing one big journey.
Teach, Learn, Share
Teach: anything about the environment and hiking. Learn: always. Share: good vibes, baking, experiences and conversation.
What I Can Share With Hosts
A warm hug and connection. Plus, a meal or two or three!
My Interests
Sitting on the top of a mountain with a freshly brewed cup of tea. Feeling that fresh adrenaline rush from jumping into cold water. Salt water. Fresh water. Being in water. Anything outside, rain or shine. Love practising yoga and mindfulness. Throw in some philosophy in the mix too for deep and meaningful chats.
