Grew up in a small town on a sheep farm! Now, I'm married with one child. Working full-time at a human rights commission. Teaching at university. Have travelled "couch-surfing" since I was 15 and have been to over 40 countries. Only I used to call it "cultural parachuting" because I would live with a family to learn a language.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I learn more, meeting locals, and it's more economical. I travel to learn about cultures.
