About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I refuse to live a mediocre life!

ABOUT ME

Hi all! My name is Lex! I also get Alex sometimes and most recently my skydiving friends have taken to calling me 'DangerFox'... Long story. I'll tell it to you one day. :P
The four things I love most in this world are BASE jumping, Skydiving, Singing/music and my sooky dog Ivy!

Getting my skydiving license was the best (most expensive) decision I've ever made! I aboslutely love it!

Here's some fun footage of me skydiving!

I love singing! I'm living in Melbourne at the moment and the live music scene is awesome!I love change and adventure. I love being thrown into situations I know nothing about like moving schools or towns and travelling alone. I love meeting new people and being out of my comfort zone. I don't believe in god but I believe there's more to life (and death) than we can possibly know about! I love quantum physics and the mysteries of our universe.
Well... thats about all i can think of for now...enjoy my insane ramblings and please keep your arms and legs inside the cart... Thankyou...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I want to meet new people from all over the world and then come and party with them in their home country!

I love living in Australia and I think Melbourne is one of the live music capitals of the world! Not to mention the food and drink and culture here! I would love to share that with anyone who is interested!

I'm always up for a night on the town and sometimes may have a couch available!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I'm pretty new to couch surfing but my best experience with a 'couch surfing' type experience was in NY.I posted on facebook that I would be in NY alone to see if anyone had any friends they could hook me up with.An Austrian girl I had met in Melbourne hooked me up with her friend in NY.He took me to an amazing night called the NY Band Draft. 8 bands all changed their members around and played originals and cover songs. I had such an amazing time with a total stranger and his friends! I ended up in Time Square at 3am just wandering around absolutely in awe of that amazing city and the amazing new friends I had made!It's crazy where life can take you if you just say yes when an opportunity presents itself.
