ABOUT ME

I like wandering, and pausing, and wandering some more. I last hosted when I was living in Goroka in the highlands of PNG. Somehow I blinked and years have passed but I'm excited to be back! As well as PNG I have previously lived and studied in Hong Kong and Germany and wandered around in a few far flung places. I like new people, the unexpected, and really really long uncomfortable journeys.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have surfed a few couches and hosted for a while in Melbourne, Australia and Goroka, PNG. Hoping to host again soon :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

One day on my travels I found myself in the middle of nowhere wishing for a friendly face, and my friend suggested I should try couchsurfing West Africa. I surfed my first couch in Monrovia, Liberia and have been enjoying the ride ever since!
