About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Travel, learn, grow. Meet people from all over and share enlightenment.

ABOUT ME

I'm a nature loving, fairly typical kiwi. I like my sport and love living by the beach. I'm into playing music and singing, alternative technologies. I believe everyone has their place on this earth and try to look on the positive side of things. I don't like the way the human race has become a parasite to mother earth. There is a better way.

PHILOSOPHY

Live and let live. Do unto others as you would have them do unto you. Care for mother earth, she's the only one we have got. There is nothing more rare!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Slept, slumbered and drunken stupored on many couches over the years. In 2006, spent a month cycling from Paris to Chamonix, Nice, Marseille and Avignon. Did some couchsurfing on the way and met some cool people to. Most recent was on a couch at a friends place in Paris.

Interests

Music. Traveling. Alternative energies and energy conservation. Health and fitness. Spirituality, free thinking, caring for mother earth. Forgotten technologies.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: Anything with BITE!! But mainly Rock i.e. Zeppelin etc. Also any music that has a good vocalist as I've been known to do a bit of singing at times and I also play a bit of Harmonica so bring your guitar and we'll jam.
Book: New age, Spiritual, Bhuddism, personal growth, stuff that feeds the mind. Wow that sounds trippy!
Movies: Anything that my kids want to watch, I also like the odd arty type and those offbeat Aussie films are great.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
