I am a 23 year old dude from Sydney, Australia.
Since my University degree, I have dedicated my time to setting up two companies.

1. 'Wierd', a platform for creative expression, innovation and collaboration, which aims to inspire people to develop and pursue their own creative interests. Our group is comprised of young professionals and freelancers from disciplines such as event management, design (web/graphic), art, music, film, etc. Over the last five years, we have organised various multifaceted creative events that showcase the work of our members. These events range from women’s circles, art exhibitions, skill-sharing workshops, music production classes (+ more) to medium scale music festivals with over 1000 in attendance.

2. 'Seedmap', a startup that aims to facilitate a deeper connection among community, business, education and the environment through its ventures and events. With a small team that is comprised of software developers, event managers, (postgraduate) students in business, architecture, mechanical engineering & medicine, our first social business is addressing the complex problem of recreational noise-induced hearing loss amongst young Australian’s (who are the most at risk).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have only heard great stories/experiences from friends who have used coach surfing. The main thing I am looking for is to get the 'local' perspective of a place that I am travelling to... This is invaluable and awesome :)
