Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Couch surfing is just another way to stay connected and engaged to what matters in this life, sleeping with strangers. I kid, i kid.
ABOUT ME
Originally from California i sold everything i own and walked away to teach around the world. i've lived in Mexico, uganda, thailand and India. I'm currently living in Australia...so far teaching Australians proper English has been my toughest assignment.
PHILOSOPHY
I am curious about everything and everyone. Especially those who can laugh at themselves.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
i'm pretty mobile but where ever i am, you are welcome!
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
i've unofficially couch surfed for ages, i figured it was time to take that relationship to the next level.
Interests
writing, i'm currently writing my first novel. When i'm not writing, i am usually playing guitar, checking out local music, lawn bowling, building miniature replica steamships out of sugar cubes or moulding figurines out of belly button lint.

Music, Movies, and Books
too many to list! i carry a copy of East of Eden with me wherever i go and i've read it almost a dozen times.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
i was thinking i'd write about the taj, or the sunsets over the zambesi..but the most incredible thing i've ever seen is the look on a certain someones face every time i come home.
Teach, Learn, Share
skills? i need skills for this? i'm fu%$ed! Unless you want to learn how to play guitar, snowboard, juggle, wiggle your nostrils so fast you create tsunamis on the other side of the world, or paint with the verve of your inner child. (i can't paint, so its usually just incoherent scribbling)
