CURRENT MISSION

Travelling and working (remotely) around Australia

ABOUT ME

Student of all things, traveller, dog and cat lover, doodler-in-textbooks kind of person

PHILOSOPHY

"Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts. Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the earth all one's lifetime." ~Mark Twain

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have had the fortune to meet some beautiful people and sleep on their couches throughout the years. Although I am often busy and travelling, I sometimes host people when I am home and have the time to show them around my city.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Skinny-dipped at midnight under moonlight with my best friend in a hot spring deep in Idaho's Sawtooth.
