About Me

CURRENT MISSION

make the road by walking

ABOUT ME

I'm relaxed and easy going , I have a great sense of humour and love to laugh, I love nature and enjoy getting away from civilisation and immersing myself in remote places. Pilbara (Karijini in particular) and South West (Bremer Bay and Fitzgerald River National Park) are some of my favourite places.

I believe in karma, an eternal optimist, a lover-not-a-fighter. I love meeting new people and especially those from other countries and cultures.

My girlfriend and I are peaceful, welcoming and looking forward to meeting you travellers!

PHILOSOPHY

flow like water; shape and be shaped

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've hosted more CSers than I've surfed but have met CS community here and overseas and they have been such fantastic people - it's inspiring! I'm happy to show you around or give you advice on Perth/Western Australia and now have a spare bedroom organised :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My introduction to CS was a great CS 10th Anniversary dinner in 2009 and met a whole bunch of amazing crew - it was such a great night I now knew I'd found a GOLD organisation!! :D

update: the more couch surfers I meet the more I love this site - it attracts such great, friendly people!

Interests

I live for music! (listening to or playing)

Apart from that I love getting out and seeing nature (coastal and inland), and whatever culture I can (music, arts..anything creative)...

Living on the coast in Denmark means great opportunities for surfing, fishing and exploring.
