About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To live a happy life, be creative and learn.

ABOUT ME

I am an open-minded person who believes that everyone has something to teach me. I am planning on traveling in 2013 and I know the highlight is going to be the people I meet and the unexpected adventures that will hopefully result from a few couchsurfing experiences.
I am pretty easy going and a great conversationalist but I'm terrible with numbers and dates. I often turn up to the wrong house on the wrong day. It's pretty embarrassing.
I love cooking. If I stay with you I'd be overjoyed to cook and meal for you - and clean up afterwards!

PHILOSOPHY

I enjoy a calm and creative existence with a a large network of amazing people people around me. Life is about being happy and helping others to be happy. The older I get the easier it seems to become!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I go to the fortnightly meet up at The Asian Beer Cafe when I can and I host occasionally. I live a very busy life but I love meeting new people.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

none as an official couch surfer yet, though I've stayed on couches and floors in Europe, Africa and Japan over the past 8 years. I've hosted couchsurfers several times and it's always been lots of fun! I like to take people bushwalking on Mt Dandenong. Last time we saw a wallaby, lyrebirds and kookaburras.

Movies: anything that isn't too gory.
Books: I love sci fi and good fantasy along with most anything else.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
