About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Work and live all over the world

ABOUT ME

I'm living in and grew up in Melbourne Australia. I currently study multimedia at university focussing mainly on 3D modelling and texturing for video games. I have just recently joined the CS community after I was awarded a scholarship to complete the 2nd half of this year's studies in Denmark. Whilst I'm in Europe I'm also planning to travel around both before and after my studies.

Some of the things I enjoy during with my spare time are going to art and design exhibitions, appreciating old and modern architecture and furniture and interior design, playing and studying video games both old 8bit and next gen, going out to the cinema, scuba diving, drinking over dinner and drinking out.

PHILOSOPHY

D1-Chill out
D2-party hard / procrastinate
D3-try something new
D4-Do everything you have putting off for the last 3 days as fast as possible then reset.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm currently setting out on a 6 month journey around Europe. I intend to CS as much as possible, in order to get the a fully immersive and culturally rich experience throughout Europe. I also hope this will allow me to spending on location attractions and good times rather than on accommodation.
