ABOUT ME
I'm a pretty straight forward guy. I like to get out and try new things and meet new people. I can be a bit shy at first but i open up pretty quickly once i get to know someone. I'm creative, a bit quirky and pretty funny given the chance. I switch between being really lazy or really excited. I'm a bit of a geek and a dag.
I love to cook!
I work as an interior designer for a small company in Canberra. My job is heaps of fun because i get to be creative every day.
I've just finished the first half of my architecture degree, so i figure it's time to get out there and have an adventure.
PHILOSOPHY
hmm.......
Follow your dreams. Don't get cuaght up trying to figure out what you want to do for the rest of your life, just do what you want to do now. Then by the time you get bored you'll have found something else to do. Just do what makes you happy because then you'll be happy doing it :)
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I've been trying to get to my local CS meetings but they currently clash with my classes at uni... but i'll definately go in the holidays.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
None... yet
Interests
I love to travel becuase i get to see things that i would never see normally. I love visiting somewhere with a completely different culture to what i'm used to. I find that the everyday actions of other cultures are different and fascinating.
I also love history becuase it's just there and it doesn't change...too much... but it helps you to understand so much of what today is about.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I once made eye contact with someone walking on the street from a hotel room 18 stories high. I thought it was pretty cool, he gave me the finger :P
Teach, Learn, Share
what can i teach? um....
I love cooking and i can ususally make something good out of whatever is just lying around... although as one of my friends would say "three types of onion and rice is not a stir fry!"
I have a lot of my own theories about the people, life, the universe and how it all works and i love getting into a really deep conversation about these things.
