Informazioni generali
Chi sono
I'm Patrick! I've been on CouchSurfing since January 2009. It's been an important part of my life ever since then, especially while living overseas. I made a website to keep track of all my CouchSurfing experiences. Check it out! http://neasey.github.io
I work in Nijmegen as a structural engineer and help run an ultimate (frisbee) club as well as some other hobbies, see below.
I've lived in Nijmegen since August 2017.
Before moving here, I lived in my hometown of Hobart for most of my life. I've also lived in Dresden, Lund, and Hong Kong.
I eat vegan, if you're a potential host reading this then I hope it's OK with you. I'd be glad to cook something for both of us.
I don't really believe in using 'culture' based on your home country as an excuse for things. If something I do is common in my home country, it's because I have thought rationally about whether it's a beneficial thing to do for myself and/or the world, not just 'because that's what Australians do'. I would encourage everybody to examine and question their actions in this way.
Perché sono iscritto su Couchsurfing
I like genuine and personal conversations and experiences.
I like getting to know surfers, hosts, and people I meet at events, especially those with whom I really click.
I don't like disingenuous people, and I am pretty quick to recognise them.
