ABOUT ME

I'm a friendly, positive type of person. I live for great music, films and art. I love to meet people and chat, chill out, play games, watch films, go to gigs, and generally get to know people.

PHILOSOPHY

“Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.” Dr. Seuss

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Surfer and potential host.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have hosted people who have since become my friends. I have been rescued from the certain drudgery of tourist traps and loneliness. Found a friend in unexpected corners of this great world.

Interests

Genuine people with inquiring minds and open hearts, the power of the written word, diverse music, simple comforts and carrying a sense of adventure at all times.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Standing at the eastern-most point of Australia, drinking tea with the Queen and falling victim to the Northern California music scene.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can paint watercolours and happy to teach this and basic drawing skills. Know a lot of art history, especially Australian Aboriginal art, other Australian art. I've taught English as a second language. I can sing and love to join in jams and singalongs.

Would love to learn any languages, cuisines, history, skills, tricks or games!
