About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To adventure through the USA, experiencing and learning all I can about this great country.

ABOUT ME

I'm a glass-half-full kinda Aussie who's been 'living the dream' for the last 8 months in Canada and now the US. Snowboarding is a passion, so 5 months in Whistler BC was a starting point, followed by an adventure couch surfing from West to East across Canada for a couple months. On July 8th, my buddy and I took off on a similar adventure travelling around the US - the trip so far has not disappointed! Travelling has taught me to always stay open-minded and to strive to experience all you can when you visit somewhere - because you never know when you'll be back and if you'll be back. Keen to do it all.

PHILOSOPHY

The race is long, but in the end it's only with yourself.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

By bringing a little ray of sunshine to the people who are kind enough to invite me into their home/hostel/truck/bar.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Have surfed across Canada, staying with some of the best people I think I'll ever meet. When I return home, I will openly offer my couch to like-minded surfers wanting to explore my great country, Australia.

Interests

I'll keep it brief:
Snowboarding
Rugby Union/League
Film/Acting
Advertising/Marketing
Boats
Travelling
Laughing (mostly at my own expense - us Aussies don't take ourselves to seriously...)

Music, Movies, and Books

All sorts of movies - anything with an intriguing and well-told storyline will glue me to a chair.

All sorts of music - music to me is a series of bookmarks in one's life where at the click of a button you can return to a given point in time. No matter what it sounds like.
