CURRENT MISSION

To sample the world

ABOUT ME

Work and travel have been at odds for some time. I have finally conceded to my irrepressible urge to travel, quitting my job and setting a path to see the world.

A journey motivated by the pursuit of worldliness and an obstinate refusal to melt into a lifetime of the corporate routine.

A temporary nomad.

PHILOSOPHY

"Only when we are no longer afraid do we begin to live.”

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Unfortunately my place isn't capable of hosting but a coffee/drink and tour of Melbourne is on offer.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I had my first CS experience in Austin, Texas and the hospitality and local knowledge were impeccable. Taken to places I wouldn't have ventured. Introduced to people I wouldn't have met.
