Aussie guy travelling around Europe for a while. Keen to see the famous historical/cultural sites as well as the smaller places popular with locals!

Currently doing a PhD in environmental science, though taking a break to clear my mind and see some of the world.

Amateur musician (piano and guitar). Love live music, learning about different cultures, exploring new places, and trying new foods.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Mostly to meet new people, possibly to stay on a couch or two.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: I can appreciate most genres, but rock and metal will always be special to me. Favourite bands/artists: Porcupine Tree, Sigur Ros, Smashing Pumpkins, Alice in Chains, Led Zeppelin, Alice Cooper.

Books: Mostly either fantasy or social commentary, though I'll admit I dont get much time to read (fiction) unless I'm travelling.

Movies: Way too many to list, but anything that makes you think or feel a strong emotion. Favourite film is Little Miss Sunshine.
