CURRENT MISSION

To see the world, make friends, and play music.

ABOUT ME

I grew up in the Blue Mountains in Australia. I'm quite a happy, relaxed, and friendly person. I play a whole bunch of instruments, I enjoy bush walking, I read a fair bit, I love food, and I love to travel.

Since finishing at music school in 2008 I've been teaching music, composing short film scores, and playing gigs around Australia. In 2012 I went on a short trip to a few countries in western Europe and straight away I knew I had to come back for longer.

I'm currently living in Germany in Freising.

PHILOSOPHY

To challenge myself and to not always be in my 'comfort zone'.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am currently travelling so I'm looking for couches located in Europe. I'm a clean and tidy couch surfer who is more than happy to help out with any house hold duties.

I'm traveling with a guitar and am happy to show you what I play (or not if that's not an interest).

I'd love to gain some local knowledge and see the sights with hosts if they have the time. If not... I'm happy to explore on my own.

I plan to host later on when I return home. I grew up in the Blue Mountains in Australia and know some really great spots that tourists don't often venture to. I also know my way around Sydney very well. So I'd one day love to show people around my home town.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've had wonderful times couch surfing in Ireland, Germany, and the UK.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Canyoning in the sand stone canyons in the Blue Mountains in Australia. I remember in one canyon reaching the bottom of an abseil, I was standing behind a water fall looking at the sun bouncing all through the canyon.
