Hi my name is Angus,
I'm overly tall, overly formal and overly self deprecating!

I'm a Musician and English Teacher from Melbourne, Australia. Melbourne is a town where people talk about the amazing overseas trips they've just got back from OR the overseas trip there about go on in a few weeks.

In my travels, all I want to do is listen and learn. Whether that be new languages, new customs or learning about the history of where I am, I'm all ears!

I also like to be helpful and useful to my hosts like cooking dinner or getting groceries for the house.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

I'm on Couchsurfing because I am tired of "sightseeing". I want to absorb the culture of a town or city through the people who live there - and hey - if we make some long lasting friendships while we're at it, I consider that a huge win!

Une aventure extraordinaire que j'ai vécue

I did a six month exchange in Sweden! One time, I hopped on an overnight train right after class and went up to a town called Kiruna in the far north. When I got off the next morning it was -20. I then got picked up in a snowmobile and taken out to a cabin deep in the snow.

As you can see, I survived the experience :)

Enseignez, apprenez, partagez

I'd like to listen and learn from my host primarily but, if you like, I do have some skills.

I'm a native English speaker and trained English teacher so if you want to practice English with me I'd be more than happy.

I can teach Music production (Ableton, Pro Tools, Logic and Garage Band) and songwriting, so by all means, let me know if that interests you.

Ce que j'aimerais partager avec mes hôtes

I love listening to all types of music but I also like to write and play music. If you have an instrument or even some decent speakers, LET'S JAM!

I love to cook! Seriously, point me to the nearest super market and I'll happily cook you something just don't ask me to cook a traditional Australian dinner, I still have no idea what that would be.
