About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Live in Scandanavia

ABOUT ME

Love meeting new people and seeing new places and always want to try different things. Being friendly and nice to everyone you meet goes a long way. Always want to learn new things. Love surfing, swimming, running, and generally being outdoors. But also love music, reading, movies, and generally being indoors. Learnt quite a bit of Spanish in Central and South America. Now struggling to learn Swedish. Worked on Indigenous health projects in Australia for the past couple of years and hoping to eventually work for an international health agency in Europe.

PHILOSOPHY

Not something I think about much but I try to enjoy life as much as possible without killing myself and making the most of every opportunity to have a new experience.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have hosted people in my hometown of Wollongong in Australia, I'm now living in Europe so will be doing a bit more surfing and hosting once I find a place to live.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Stayed with people throughout South America, met and stayed with some awesome people in Argentina and Ecuador. It was so much better staying with locals and seeing the city from their perspective. Haven't used the website much to find hosts as of yet.

Interests

Love music and always looking to discover as much different music as possible. Would love to be able to spend the rest of my life surfing everyday if that was possible. Other interests: reading, learning, global issues, history, snowboarding, food, beer, wine, travelling, nature, amazing views, campervans, interesting people.
