ABOUT ME
I last used couch-surfing when I backpacked through Europe almost 10 years ago!! Since then it was my turn to host lots of friends and connections from my travels.
I now have a landscape architecture & regenerative design business using my experiences in sustainable development & permaculture.
I'm a very active person especially when travelling, I love being on the move and exploring new cultures and places.
I’m optimistic, open minded and love meeting new people!!
I'm easy, can sleep anywhere, on the floor, on the beach... My attitude reflects that I don't need much to be happy.
I'm visiting nbulunbuy from the 15th - 25th May where I’ll be camping for a cultural workshop with some friends learning about indigenous customs & traditions.
After then I’m hoping to hang around and explore the area. Hopefully find a place to crash for a couple weeks, an old friend put me in touch with some people up there to see and share experiences with.
I’ll be up there with some camera equipment so looking for somewhere safe to leave my things :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Started a project in East Africa (Tanzania) teaching permaculture to Maasai villages. Was there for around 4 months living with the tribes learning about customs and traditions.
Took part in ethnobotany research with indigenous communities in Mentawi, West Sumatra. A friend was doing a paper for Nat-geo and I was about to document their regenerative agricultural systems.
Explored Central America buying a car in Mexico.
Got stuck on an incredibly remote island off Vanuatu, with no rush to leave experiencing the beautiful people and culture.
Teach, Learn, Share
I think there’s too many crocodiles up there for any surf lessons but if it interests you happy to share anything when it comes to sustainable development, permaculture, landscapes.
What I Can Share with Hosts
A beer or some wine, stories, laughs.
