About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Explore Europe whilst on student exchange in Norway!

ABOUT ME

To assist the description allow me to break it down:

- Physically: A tall thin guy who plays basketball and likes to wear well ironed collars. I was born in Australia with an Italian background (although I don't look it). I also smile a lot, and am quick to laugh.

- Mentally: A touch obsessive (this helps me study), a splash of humour (although no where near as much as I think I have), and a large dollop of individuality.

- Emotionally: A solid rock of optimism and confidence, I always look on the bright side and rarely let anything in life get to me. I also don't take myself even slightly seriously.

- Spiritually: I'm not in the slightest bit religious, but I find spiritualism and the search for purpose/meaning fascinating. I spent a LOT of time thinking about how the world works.

In summary, slightly quirky guy with questionable taste in pop culture (see below), but who is actually really down to earth, and loves nothing more than a good chat.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm currently on exchange in Norway, and my student accommodation doesn't really have anywhere for someone else to stay, so currently I'm only participating as a surfer.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've couch surfed for a week in Germany, hopefully the start of much more to come.

Interests

Sport: Been playing basketball every week since primary school, and also get a bit of soccer and golf in every now and then. I run regularly, and in the last few years I've gotten into skiing which is amazing.

Technology: I am a tech head who is massively into gadgets.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music classics: bob dylan, the beatles, david bowie, crowded house, the beach boys, the police, genesis/phil collins, madonna, billy joel... and yes, occasionally some modern stuff (coldplay)!

Movies by quentin tarantino, the cohen brothers, christopher nolan, or james cameron, but basically anything good! For TV, the BBC was my first love, and survivor is a current guilty pleasure.

Books: ...Textbooks... the only thing I have time to read at the moment... But when I do have time: currently anything by neil gaiman or any penguin classics I can get my hands on.
