About Me

ABOUT ME

I am born and raised in Australia, I have lived there my whole life. This year I decided to do something different and step out of my comfort zone and EXPLORE EUROPE! I started my trip in England star of May and ever since I’ve been travelling all around Europe.

I am an easy going guy, who enjoys chatting with new people and getting to know their country, politics, history and of course about the individual too! I think I am a funny guy, but sometimes people can’t understand my sarcasm.

Since I was young, I always went on camping trips with my family and trips to the beach to go body boarding and head on the surf ski. I have always grown up surrounded by nature. I also love going on hikes, being surrounded surf and 4 wheel driving in remote locations.

PHILOSOPHY

I believe in making a difference and not impacting the world.
Sometimes been wrong is better then been right.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My first experience couch surfing was in Albania with Mika In her hostel. After that I'd had various other experiences with my girlfriend, although we are taking different travel paths so I need my own profile!

Music, Movies, and Books

I like to listen to under-earthed bands (There is a great Radio Station in Australia called Triple J- Look it up!)
I also enjoy Indie/Alternative music.
I'm always open to new music, and listening to the music from your country. I enjoy Spanish and Italian music, it's something different but really easy to listen too as well.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Doing a 3 day hike through the northern part of Albania.
Hiking to the base or the Matterhorn in Switzerland.

Spending time with my mates, camping at Minnie Waters in New South Wales.

Teach, Learn, Share

I use to be a Scout and i can teach you a few things, like tying knots and stuff.

I am a pretty 'Handy Man' i guess, as i am a Plumber but i also enjoy doing some DIY.

I enjoy cooking, and i like to taste typical food from every country and i love getting new recipes from people!

I want to learn another language, particularly German. I'm always trying but sometimes it doesn't exactly work out.
