Aussie from the north east coast. On a trip across Europe, taking it as it comes. PhD in science ... I studied fish behaviour and evolution. Love diving & hiking.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I’ve unofficially hosted quite a few couchsurfers in Australia (people met on the street, friends of friends passing through, etc). I love this concept of connecting a community of travellers. I feel it’s right at the heart of why I travel; to meet people from different paths and share experiences. I hope to continue to host others when I’m home again in Australia via he CS app.
