Overview
About Me
I am a 44 year old Australian male that is right into the bikepacking adventures on my mountain bike. Bikepacking is when you have a all your camping/sleeping/cooking gear with you on your bike including your food and water. Then you hit the single trails in the forests and bushlands.
Apart from that, professionally I am an Engineering Surveyor back in Perth, Western Australia. I like to mountain bike race, adventure triathlon and I'm pretty keen on some good tucker.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I'm here mostly as a backup to using Warmshowers.org which is the cycling community's couch surfing but less popular. I use both mainly to have a real experience in a city or town and hopefully meet active adventurous cyclists or mountain bikers such as myself. Also great to have a home base with people(hosts) as it gets lonely out in the countryside when your bikepacking solo!

What I Can Share with Hosts
Stories in Australian. Usually about the differences in our countries and tales of adventures I've been up to in yours.
I generally am a pretty alright cook. I will most likely bring some nice wine to go with a shared meal so we can sit down and break bread and chat.
