About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Travel Africa!

ABOUT ME

Hey! Just like you i have had my fair share of crazy adventures and have enjoyed travelling to some awesome places both in Australia and elsewhere around the world! I just finished 3 years travelling Asia, Europe and the Americas!! So awesome! So many highlights! So many amazing people! I'm home now and I want to show some people my country and be as hospitable as the hundreds of people I met all over this brilliant and beautiful world!

PHILOSOPHY

I am lucky that I have the opportunity to travel. It has honestly enriched my life and given me perspective. I think you should live your own life the best way that suits you..... and hopefully, that gives you pleasure and happiness.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Hmmm well i am an average cook, semi-alcoholic, ex-smoker who is adventurous, funny and interesting. Let me show you around Melbourne and Victoria.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've slept on a few couches but that's about it! I've never officially couch surfed but i'm willing to host a few.

Interests

I am a semi-typical aussie in that i love the sun, the sand and the surf. I love being near the water and activities like swimming, scuba diving, sailing,canyoning, snorkelling and fishing. I am also passionate about all things property related like; architecture and city planning, building and community development, demographics and housing. I also enjoy outdoor activities like walking or hiking, riding bikes and motorbikes and playing or watching sports. I love all animals, reading, eating, drinking, talking and partying too!
