I am embarking on a year of solo travel to explore how cultural perceptions of bats influence their conservation. I'll be going to Fiji, Australia, Papua New Guinea, Thailand, Philippines, and Madagascar.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I would love to connect with locals while on my travels to meet knew people and to share experiences!
