CURRENT MISSION

jumping at life's opportunities as they arise, trying to max out on experience.

ABOUT ME

Young entrepreneur, working on projects to promote holistic, sustainable living. I have a great deal of passion and devotion for whatever I'm involved in.

I love to learn, I love to teach - I'm easily excited by new ideas...

I love getting carried away in conversation, wine, adventure, and experiencing new perspectives. Massive fan of the outdoors - climbing / tramping / cycling / skiing - always keen to meet like-minds.

I'm an enthusiastic photographer, striving to capture moments in time that reflect my experiences - how I felt, not just what I saw.

I'm pescatarian (or a vegaquarium!) - I'm largely vegetarian, but still eat fish and seafood. Food is another great passion - I love not only flavours, but the way food is integrated into different cultures.

PHILOSOPHY

our thoughts determine our responses to life - we are not victims of the world. To the extent that we control our thoughts, we control the world. (h jackson brown)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Just new - looking for ways to contribute

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Have stayed on many couches in many homes in many countries - generally through people I've met on the street, on mountains, in hostels, on boats, or online. Looking forward to a little more structure and certainty! Relish the chance to spend time with locals and get a fuller experience of a place and its people.

One of my first experiences came after meeting a couple in Sarajevo, then spending all night with them in the emergency department after he got in a fight. I ended up staying with them for a week, cooking, drinking, meeting their friends... discovered some incredible new tunes and a pescatarian diet that i still live by, years later. Even went back for another week later!
