About Me

Hi! I'm new to Couchsurfing so I don't have any references yet but here are some things to know so you can get to know me better 😀:
- I've been learning Malagasy for the past three years!🇲🇬
- I'm a cinematographer and a film student at Utah Valley University. I'll be visiting Madagascar in May for a research trip for a documentary I've just started the process of making
- I was born in Australia but grew up in the United States 🇦🇺🇺🇸
- I'm a drone pilot
- I've got six siblings in my family and so does my wife!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

My Malagasy friend Tommy and I need places to stay for our big trip around Madagascar! We thought this would be a great opportunity to not only have places to stay but also to meet and network with other fun people:)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Donated plasma (like donating blood for those who aren't familiar with it) twice a week for four months to fund this whole trip to Madagascar! It isn't cheap!

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach: I can teach English as that's my native language
Learn: I'm learning Malagasy so any help with that would be much appreciated!
Share: I'm totally down to go on adventures with hosts and take free portrait photos of them for their keepsakes!
