HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Host and Surf

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I am new to couch surfing, however when I was travelling through Canada in 2008 I met many lovely people who I stayed with, some of whom have visited me in Australia since then.

Interests

I enjoy seeing live music, spending time in my newly planted vegetable garden and using produce from here in cooking masterpieces, cycling, bushwalking, spending time with friends, enjoying a glass of wine or beer, and of course travelling, meeting new people and exploring new places.
