Hi! I'm an easy going, creative guy with a 6 bedroom house in Lyall Bay. I have a teenage daughter who lives upstairs with me every second week and one longer term female traveller living downstairs in the main room. I have a single bed in my small studio available currently and sometimes a queens sized bed in another room.
They come with wifi, shower, nice deep bath and ocean views from the living space.
UPDATE: Oct 2016 we now include 3 female flat mates to the mix. Veronika 30 from Czech republic, Dee 28 from Canada and Siobhan 28 from Ireland. They came to stay as couch surfers and ended up flatmates :-) We can still take on the occasional friendly visitor esp as the summer rolls in....We have had an amazing first two months on CS with some superb guests livening up the place.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet interesting individuals from other cultures and to give my teenage daughter some different views of the world before she heads of on her own travels some day.

Interests

Drawing, painting and writing / playing music. I am passionate about the creative process in general and love learning from others. Cooking and sharing food with friends.
