I am a paramedic newgrad, working as a volunteer Ambulance Officer, Youth Leader (teaching kids 6-18 years old), and paid as a casual First Aid trainer and a casual porter at a hotel (yes - I like to keep busy and have variety in my life!).

In my free time, I love photography, the beach, nature, hanging out with the family, meeting new people, visiting friends, and watching Grey's Anatomy.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have heard that it is a great way to meet locals and see a new city in a totally different way!
