Having decided to move from Perth on the West Coast of Australia, back to Melbourne on the East coast, we have taken the opportunity to squeeze in some travel in Asia and Northern America. We have loved meeting locals along the way and sharing food, stories and places dear to them. We are curious people and love to see people living their passions.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Interested in meeting new people to enrich our travel experience. Experiencing new cultures, new ideas and seeing different ways of doing things are what motivates me to travel and the only way to do this is to meet and share with locals along the way.

Music, Movies, and Books

Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros, Nick Cave and Monsters of Men are my travel tunes.
The book 'Seasons of Change' and the movie 'Gandhi' stand out as impacting my current travels.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I am always taken by a whale spotting and have been lucky enough to see Humpbacks in Australia, Orcas in Canada, Blue Whales in Sri Lanka and swim with Whale Sharks in the Philippines.

What I Can Share with Hosts

We love to tell and hear travel stories, over a nice meal and maybe a wine.
Cooking and eating are best shared. I can turn anything into a meal but particularly enjoy camp cooking.
