About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To enjoy life.

ABOUT ME

I have grown up moving around a lot with my family (lived all over Australia, on the Solomon Islands and in Turkey). Because of all this moving I got the travel bug, so now all I dream of is exploring the world!

I love the outdoors (skiing, surfing, hiking etc), music, theatre, science, experiencing new cultures and meeting new people. I have three goals in life which are:

1) Always be happy
2) Get sponsored to go to space
3) Get sponsored to go to the Antartic

My favourite quote which I live by is:
"You come from nothing, you're going back to nothing. What have you lost? Nothing! Cheer up you silly old bugger, worse things happen at sea." - Monty Python Life Of Brian

PHILOSOPHY

In the scheme of things, as a person growing up in a 1'st world country, with access to education, jobs and a good health system, I do not have reason to complain...about the petty things in life. There are always others that have it worse off, without the opportunities I have been given, so I am always grateful for what I have.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I share experiences, opinions, morals, ethics and food ideas with everyone I meet. I think you can take something positive away from everyone you meet (even if is that you are glad you are not like them!) and because of this it is important to be open, honest and to meet as many people as you can.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

So far I have only had the opportunity to surf, not host. This been said, so far I have had an amazing time. All the hosts so far have been exceptional. I hope my experience remains positive and that I can repay my hosts kindness when I have a place of my own.

Interests

Travel, outdoor sports, improvisation acting, meeting people, music just to name a few.
