ABOUT ME

ALL about me... and Marty (partner) . I'm short, Marty farts a lot, but don't worry, not on other people's couch!!! We've just come back and are trying to get a little settled after almost 3 years away.

PHILOSOPHY

My philosophy is not loosing time thinking about my philosophy and enjoy life instead!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've had friends of friends staying on some of my couches, I've also slept on international friend's couches. But nothing "on paper" yet as in CS. I love the idea thought and am taking to a whole new level now!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Well, we met this guy travelling the east coast of Australia, met him in a pub near a place called Capricorn caves. His name was MOOVE he told us. He was a nice guy and after a few drinks he invites us back to crash at his place... Sweet! You're always happy to find a free sensible sleeping arrangment. So we follow his car, pretty far back in the farming land, and we get there and he's got a pretty cool place, very much like a back country converted shed house, but a place where you can sit on the toilet with the door open (or was there a door at all?) and look out onto beautiful rolling hills can't be bad! But as the night drew on and we had a few more drinks, MOOVE started to loosen up and talking about weird stuff... like him coming out of jail and and taking revenge on some guy by giving him up the ass or some crazy shit like that. But don't worry he said, I used a condom!!! So that was a very interesting event, where all 4 of us actually got a little scared but gives us something to have a laugh about everytime we'll bring it into the conversation!
