About Me

26year old lover of life!!

I have a passion for travel. The world is such an amazing place full of stunning natural environments and beautiful people its understandable that I an not the only one.

Before I left Australia I completed my apprenticeship in carpentry specifically in fine woodworking. I love creating a piece of furniture from scratch but have just as much fun restoring a second hand piece found on the side of the road.

And other then being in a workshop I try to spend as much time outdoors as possible. It's always nice to visit a big city for a day or 2 but after that I start to feel a little trapped. Give me the Mountains, rivers, valleys, waterfalls every day off the week.

I’ve found the best way to learn and be inspired is simply by seeking out amazing people and listening to the incredible stories and experience they have.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet friendly like minded people

Interests

I love snowboarding and hiking but really all sports and board games I'm more than happy to join in. I'm a big fan of recycling so second hand stores and flee markets have become my favourite places to visit any time in a city.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music- Edward Sharp and the magnetic zeros
Book- Currently reading The book of joy. All time favourite author will always be Dr Seuss though
Movie- Fight club or Shudder island really any physiological thriller with a couple of twists. Then again would happily watch most Disney movies

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Teaching English in Sri Lanka

Teach, Learn, Share

I cant think of a better way of sharing than having a meal together or spending an evening sitting around a campfire singing songs and telling stories.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I am a carpenter so any odd jobs you might need help with around the house I would be more then happy to put my hand to. I also worked as an outdoor guide so I could show you a few different knots or how to light a fire if your interested. But really some delicious vegetarian food, good conversation, a funny joke or 2 and a few beers would be my main advantages. And stories I have plenty of stories!!
