CURRENT MISSION:
For 2026, On Thursday February 26, The AFL (Aussie rules Football) Brisbane Lions are staging a pre-season football match Feb 26th in Ipswich. While we are avid Lions footy fans and keen to attend our first match, my wife (Linda) and I have never been to Ipswich. The footy game finishes after 8 pm and we don't want to drive back in the night so would like to find someone to 'Host' us in Ipswich and perhaps even stay a couple of days looking around Ipswich before or afte going to the game. We know our late friends have said Ipswich has beautiful gardens and occasionally, others have said Ipswich is a nice town? We are open to suggestions.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

Every now and then I (we) feel we wish to share our coastal paradise and host some needy CS and spread the word of what it is like living here on the Sunshine Coast. Then, on occasions, I (we) have a need as CS to seek help in unfamiliar locations , company and of course accommodation to reduce our travel cost. We are after all Aged Pensioners on fixed incomes. We are eager to meet new people and learn about them and their home life and share in their interests. So, lets enjoy each others company. We are very willing participants in cooking, chores and fuel and will always contribute in all ways to help our generous hosts.

Centres d'intérêt

My interests are. writing, body board surfing, dancing, fishing, spear fishing, snorkeling, bike riding, politics, environmental issues, AFL football and cricket, reading, exchange travel stories, I love playing cards (particularly a game called five hundred), most MUSIC, golf - although not much lately, I just love HORSES, DOGS, CATS, BBQ's, WINE, MOVIES, Theatre, COOKING, and now I am into my Ancestry and wish to complete that as my legacy....by the way, I love potted plants as in growing herbs (and veggies - small scale but still a challenge) plus, plus, plus

My wife Linda will be happy to share all about herself to those hosts who enquire.

Morceaux de musique, films et livres

Most movies all genres - action, Sci-Fi, adventure and romantic comedy, but NO horror.
Most music - Latin American, Classical, Rock and Roll, Ballads
Books - For pure entertainment only (not learning....lol), my preference is Fiction - mainly political thrillers in the vein of Tom Clancy, Nelson De Mille, Robert B. Parker and most Historical Adventure Stories.

Une aventure extraordinaire que j'ai vécue

Done: nothing too spectacular..... maybe washed an elephant in Sri Lanka ? Seen: Mmmm.....thats "a different kettle of fish". But over all, I've seen beautiful places and met beautiful people from around the world. I've done enough to know how wonderful the world and its people are.... but nothing probably "amazing" to me anyway.

I'm a bit too practical, responsible (old)...lol.....I now have too much common sense.

My wife Linda will be happy to share all about herself to those hosts who enquire.

Enseignez, apprenez, partagez

I've taught as a host and couch surfer....cooking, marketing and business skills. I've learned from couch surfers IT and computer skills and shared myself as they have shared themselves. I really can't be specific on here, but many CS listed have so much to offer as a host to visitors like me. I have learnt from other CS hosts and will teach and share what I know and have with CS whom I have the privilege to host.

My wife Linda will be happy to share all about herself to those hosts who enquire.

Ce que j'aimerais partager avec mes hôtes

I can share myself and whats mine, my time, my skills, my resources for expenses and most of all, my engaging company.
