About Me

Hi! I’m travelling solo around the planet from Melbourne, Australia for no particular reason other than my job was boring and the planet looks kinda neat. Anyway, my wallet can no longer handle the strain of the five-star hotels I’ve been using so I’ve turned to couch surfing. I don’t really know how this works so feel free to school me but I’m pretty fun to have around from what I’ve been told and if you’ve always wanted to adopt an idiot adult son then I’m the man for you. I promise I can clean stuff well and not steal anything and just generally be a good person so please let me inside your house :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I’m shooting an episode for undercover boss.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: Radiohead, Tame Impala, Dandy Warhols, Pixies, Beach House, Grimes, Talking Heads, Animal Collective, Dan Deacon, Hiatus Kaiyote, Philip Glass, Led Zeppelin, anyone really.

Books: Currently part-way through Crime and Punishment, Moby Dick, The Stranger and collected Sherlock Holmes, but I wouldn't say I have a favourite unless you count Harry Potter, but that's kinda like saying your favourite drink is juice.

Movies: Up in the air; Hanna; Burn after reading; beasts of the southern wild; Babel; Thelma and Louise; O Brother, where art thou?; holy motors; Super; Scott Pilgrim; Koyaanisqatsi; Kill Bill; a ghost story - the list goes on forever

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have achieved nothing significant in life. I’m a failure in my parents’ eyes.
So far have travelled to Japan, Singapore, Malaysia, Cambodia, Vietnam (twice), China (two months), Russia, Germany and Belgium. Most of them were pretty cool. Feel free to ask me more about them.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love to learn, I’ll teach if you want me to but I’m pretty stupid so you might be better off talking to someone else about that and I already share too much.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I have a happy, easy-going personality, I have wild tales from my travels, I can wash dishes, clean and drink with the best of them and I have a bag of magic teeth that grant wishes.

Countries I’ve Visited

Belgium, Cambodia, China, Germany, Hong Kong, Japan, Malaysia, Netherlands, Russian Federation, Singapore, Viet Nam

Countries I’ve Lived In

Australia
