About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To enjoy life's challenges as much as life's blessings..

ABOUT ME

Hey there! Couch Surfing is pretty great isn't it? I'm still a bit new to it, but I've only had great experiences with this site.. I've met TRUE friends on it, that i still stay in touch with to this day.

I'm a pretty easy going guy, friendly, open-minded (I come from a mixed family.. < don't we all?? haha) and figure if I respect others, then they are more likely to respect me back, right?

Anyway, I do graphic design as my profession and love all things artistic and creative, but also have a passion for eating food. So feel free to send me a msg and we'll start getting to know each other!

PHILOSOPHY

Learn to love life's challenges as much as life's blessings.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Need a place to stay in Melbourne's CBD? Well, if you're a friendly honest person looking for a nice comfy, secure couch, then let me know! I live right down the road from the Queen Victoria Markets, so food should be fressh and cheap! Or, if you want to catch up for coffee, or want a buddy to show you around the beautiful city of Melbourne, I love meeting new people.. so let me know.. and if I'm free we'll catch up! :)
