I'm originally from Melbourne, Australia (although I don't have much of an accent) I lived in Canada for 2 years, I've spent 2 months traveling in New Zealand, 1 year backpacking in Europe, 1 and a half years backpacking Latin America and 3 months Couchsurfing across the U.S and really enjoyed my time doing so.

As of now I'm backpacking through Asia.

I'm an easy-going, friendly and respectful guy. I like to learn about people and their cultures/interests. I'm a good listener but can also keep to myself if need be.

P.S I am very tall (200cm) but I can usually make do with smaller couches/beds as long as they're not too small. I also have a camping hammock with me I can sleep in if you have space for it

P.P.S I am fully vaccinated against Covid

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've had so many great experiences on Couchsurfing and I love the culture of sharing and generosity it has created.
