About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Continue travelling for aslong as possible without running out of money.. then keep on going

ABOUT ME

Hola! Im generally a solo traveller who makes friends along the way - hopefully the next one can be you?

Im always looking at ways to experience things a little bit of the beaten backpacker trail and I love the idea of couchsurfing. The last 3 months of life have been a whirl through Central America and now with 10 weeks left I want to see the most of Colombia, Ecuador, Bolivia, Peru and Chile.. lets see what happens!

Im aiming on reaching a respectable level of spanish (with mixed results), doing some more volunteer work, climbing higher mountains and enjoying some good food.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Unfortunately life hasnt allowed me to be a host though Ive spread the name far and wide by word of mouth AND I vow that once Im back home I will make it happen!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

celebrated my birthday night with another group of couchsurfers on a rooftop terrace, partied with Spain winning the world cup and found a tiny little flat for a month all in Barcelona, managing to burn a pizza into a perfect black disc. Running in a torrential rain with the sun shining bright. Oh, and seeing the worlds smallest volcano.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Working with Sea turtles in Greece, Guatemala and Costa Rica, everyone should see these beautiful creatures at least once in their life.

Living in the Swiss alps for 2 winter seasons.. the true beauty of nature

Mountain biking in Mount Buller outside of Melbourne

Teach, Learn, Share

how to make a outdoor kitchen that will last more than 2 summers out of wood from a old taverna? how to find and relocate a Loggerhead Turtle nest?

Im open to learning and sharing - most things I will try once... or twice
