About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Exploring and playing.

ABOUT ME

My life is centred around composing music and Buddhist practise. I am always exploring my relationship to these two things and they seem to be increasingly synthesising.

I'm quiet, kind, imaginative..I like to laugh and to live in community.

PHILOSOPHY

I'm Buddhist

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Through meeting people and sharing their experience of where they live.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I was first introduced to couch surfing when I was on a train in Brisbane. I was soaking wet and very grumpy with my huge backpack. A woman approached me and told me I could stay at her house. I thought she was mad. Then she told me all about couch surfing and since then I've had some great experiences and always feel so uplifted by the kindness of strangers.
