Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Mostly we have greatly enjoyed hosting and made many good friends. Especially while living overseas it has been great to host travellers and show them around and look after them. Recently we have been running with airbnb but enjoy doing some couchsurfing and warmshowers hosting too especially if travellers are doing something a little different: like walking the coast for charity or doing some very long distance cycling or performing somewhere like Steve who appeared as a dinosaur at the Eden Project!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Flew my 1 year old daughter out of Australia on her 2nd birthday so that she had a the longest birthday possible (and we didn't have to pay a full child's fare (she's in her very late 20's now!)) Thanks Air India!
