About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Experiencing cultures, customs and cuisine throughout the world

ABOUT ME

I left Australia in July 2007 for the delectible South and Central America. I cruised through the United States and worked in Banff, Canada.

I am now back to my whimsical travelling ways with my destination unknown.

PHILOSOPHY

I have to take each day as it comes and accept the challenges without taking it out on my fingernails.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I want to be a part of the world that is Couchsurfing to experience a place from the inside out.

Interests

Travel, beach, being outdoors, being awestruck by the sheer beauty and power of nature, snowboarding (though my skills need improving), getting off the beaten track, meeting new people, cold beer, barbeques, swimming, good conversation.
