About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Don't worry, be happy

ABOUT ME

Currently wandering around Europe with no particular plan, attempting to get a glimps of this extremely large world we live in. Taking a relaxed attitude to all things in life has been an amazing way to travel (possibly not the best way to finish a university degree but thats for next year). Im always enjoy having a good chat and laugh and learning about new cultures and the way people have a good time.

PHILOSOPHY

Bob Marley said very many wise things, but the most impotrtant was "every lil thing is gunna be alright". And karma works as well.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

CS is a poetically beautiful idea that runs on the basis that there is an enourmous amount of people in the world that want to meet new people and show them where they're from. In Australia I have had many back packers stay on the their trail up the east coast of Australia. I have only ever had good experiences with giving a bed to a traveller, because a bed is always apprectiated

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Always a great experience

Interests

Im a big fan of the beach, having lived on it most of my life, so spear fishing, surfing and SCUBA diving are things that i really dig. I also love eatting new food, and sleeping in new places. I find camping and hiking are really good ways to get out of the stresses of life so I try and get into the wilderness when ever I have the chance. I also enjoy having a good party and letting the good times roll

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: bit of everything (always willing to find new funky things to groove to), but favourites include Modest Mouse, Micheal Franti (groovey groovey man), Marley, Fat boy slim, chemical brothers, Basement Jaxx, MGMT, Empire of the Sun, Beastie Boys plus loads more of everything I can get my hands onto.

Books: same with music, I'll read everything thats put in front of me. Some really good books that I read on these travels have been: Catch 22 (wicked book, reccomended for everyone ever), Phillip K Dick (crazy author from the 60's who took way to many drugs and then wrote crazy stories), also into Terry pratchet, stephen King , and newspapers are always good.

Movies: always will watch any movie really but favourites are always Tarintino and the Cohen brothers

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Lived in Kalisz for 2 weeks. Very strange.

Teach, Learn, Share

Everywhere I go I try and get people to have a look underwater and see what really going on down there. Studying biology and being a diver means that I always love to show people the under water world that I gain so much enjoyment from.
I also want to ride a bicycle from London to Sydney so if anyone could teach me to do that , that would be great.

Countries I’ve Visited
