CURRENT MISSION

To repay some of the good traveling karma I have received on my own world travels

ABOUT ME

I'm an Australian who is lucky enough to live in San Francisco. I'm a lawyer who tries to keep balance in my life so I can enjoy what really counts.

I love surfing(waves), running or biking up San Francisco's hills, going out to see music or just to grab a few beers.

PHILOSOPHY

Travel and trust will always be rewarded

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I host every few months to meet new people. I have a nice apartment in San Francisco with room for guests so feel like it is something I should share.

When I get time to travel again, I'd like to couchsurf myself.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Back in the mid-90s, I spend a year backpacking in South America and met many new friends who welcomed me into their homes. I see CouchSurfing as a way to meet new folks and an opportunity to repay some of the good karma I have experienced as a traveler.
