About Me

CURRENT MISSION

stability works well for me, and CS's sometimes need this to consolidate and plan

ABOUT ME

My two children live with me, My idea of a surfer staying is that they would stay for free and in return they would enjoy cooking a meal or two. Perhaps they could surprise us by being clean and tidy. The house would be their home.

PHILOSOPHY

Do unto others as you expect others to do to you.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I provide a safe environment and facilities for the CS. I work full-time, and keep active, and CS's are welcome to join in (not at work though) or just relax and do their own thing. As for showing someone around Brisbane, I simply don't have time for that, but do enjoy company for already planned activities that may interest both a CS and children. I make it easy for the CS, transport wise etc. A CS can do their own thing, or participate in our enjoyment of Brisbane and both Sunshine and Gold Coasts.
