I'm Australian and have been working overseas in international development and humanitarian emergencies for many years. Most of my work has been in human trafficking, irregular migration and displacement.

I'm currently doing protection work at UNHCR in Zamboanga (Mindanao) in the Philippines in a post-conflict area and about to return to Melbourne. Would invite guests here but you'll likely get kidnapped by one of the 3 armed groups or pirates!

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

I can't even count the number of couch surfers I've had over the years in different countries, contexts and couches. Many of them have remained friends for life and wanted to join the online club to do it properly!

I love alternative, rock and drum&bass music; thrillers, action, horror and sci-fi movies, and any literature I can can get my hands on, especially overseas :) Haven't converted to a kindle so cart around more books than clothes in my suitcase!
