Hi!

I grew up on a small farm in the Adelaide Hills. There was always plenty of work to do, and we almost always had WWOOFers staying with us to help out. People from all over the world would help mend fences, move sheep, dig holes, and plant trees.

Couchsurfing should be a two-way exchange - I love to meet people from all over the world, hear their stories, and give something back.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on Couchsurfing 'cause it's (currently) the best way to get to know a place - meet the locals! To me, that's what travelling is all about.

I'm past the point of wanting to see the tourist traps or the gift shops - I want to get straight into the best places to see and things to eat - and the locals know those places better than Google or Tripadvisor ever can.

Right now I'm travelling by land from Singapore to Denmark, and every place is better when you know a local!
