CURRENT MISSION

to explore strange new places, to meet new people, and to boldly go where others have likely gone before!

ABOUT ME

I'm a surfer, easy going and inquisitive. I enjoy learning about new ways of life and finding friends around the globe.

I love the island that I come from but traveling is routed deep within my soul. I spent the last year and half in South East Asia, working as a wakeboard instructor in Vietnam and then as a Dive Control Specialist in Thailand. Feel free to drop me a line if you'd like to know more!

PHILOSOPHY

I constantly feel lucky - no, scrap that - More than lucky to be who I am. There are a lot of people in this world who don't have the options that I was born with - the ability to make their own decisions in life, decide their own fates, or even the choice to make their own destiny. I intend to use the freedom I was born with and never forget how lucky I am.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Although I may not always be able to offer a bed for the night (although I will when possible), I can certainly show travellers a good time on my island home!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Zip - None. Although I have a feeling my next trip will be a bit of an adventure into the unknown which may require me to rely on the help of Couchsurfers!

Interests

surfing (in the sea), diving, Wakeboarding, spearfishing, traveling, philosophy, hiking, wilderness camping, spending time to just chat with someone new.

Music, Movies, and Books

Crickey, there's a question - I love to read a wide range of literature, and I feel remarkably lost if I don't have a book to 'get into'.

I've gone of movies in the last couple of years, I always feel like I should be doing something more constructive. But, in truth, if you sit me down in front of the box I'll pretty much enjoy most films.

I love all sorts of music, from classic to soul, or reggae to pop - The only thing I'm not such a big fan of is screaming into a mic.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Driven solo across the Outback, surfed with dolphins, spent days kayaking around the waters of Halong Bay, taught hundreds of backpackers how to wakeboard, dived with whale sharks, taught English in Asia, motorbiked through Vietnam, eaten the heart out of snake, worked in some awesome beach bars, and so much more!

Teach, Learn, Share

I would be happy to give people a tour of my island and help them learn how to surf (providing the swells any good).
I have a couple of beginner surfboards and I can take you out and get you standing up before you know it!
I can also take you to some of our finest establishments to meet the locals!
