My name is David, Im from a small trown called Mt Macedon, which is just outside Melbourne, Victoria, Australia. Im 60 years old , recently retired, was working in IT for most of my career. I love travel and have travelled widely. When ever Ive hosted guests its been a rewarding experiennce.
I love museums, galleries, art, nature, cities, public spaces, urbanism and bushwalking.
Im well educated, well mannered, intelligent, and love good conversations / telling stories over a a coffee or a wine.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love to travel and to meet new people - Couchsurfing combines both!
Im happy to host and willing to show people around Melbourne.
I want to share this amazing place with travellers who will appreciate and enjoy it, and I have a couple of spare bedrooms rooms that are gathering dust, what a waste!
