Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
I'm hitting the road
ABOUT ME
I've got a 12 month working visa for the USA. I'd like to spend most of that time in New York City.
I'm going to the States via Paris. And after New York I want to see a few Southern States. When immigration kick me out I'm heading back to Europe.
PHILOSOPHY
Be yourself, be good, read, create things. Be positive, it helps a lot. Get out of your comfort zone more often, physically, socially, spiritually, creatively.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I will be travelling for the next twelve months at least. I'd love to give surfing a shot. When I get back to my place in Sydney --which my big sister is keeping warm for me-- I will be happy to host.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
It's great. I haven't had a bad experience yet.
Interests
Contemporary art. Photojournalism, documentary photography. Portraiture. Markets. Food. Sleep.
Dogs. I love them. If you have a dog, can I please walk it?
Making new friends. This is a biggie. Some of my closest friends only came into my life recently. The measure of a good friendship isn't its duration.
Lastly, travel.

Music, Movies, and Books
Movies: I hardly ever watch movies. If you're a film buff, help me out.
Music: Yes please.
Books: Some authors I like: George Orwell, Jonathan Franzen, Kurt Vonegut, Somerset Maugham, George Eliot, Coetzee, David Sedaris, etc. If you have a book recommendation, I'd love to have it.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Nepal and India: the tranquility of the Himalayas, the chaos of the cities. The path of Enlightenment, and the other one to Capitalism, India has it all.
Teach, Learn, Share
I can teach you to meter light, take an okay photo, then develop the film.
