After 18 months travelling and working around Australasia I set off to backpack around South and Central America for 3 months which quickly turned into 10. 3 years later I'm still here! Living in Bogotá, Colombia.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm fairly new to this but it seems a perfect way to meet genuine people whether locals to the area or fellow travellers. I'm all about sharing life experiences and getting to know people!

Music, Movies, and Books

Indie/rock/reggae/dance

I love reading. Mainly non fiction (especially travel writing!) but I have a soft spot for George Orwell, Somerset Maughum, Iain Banks, John Le Carre, Martin Amis as well as many of the classics.

I enjoy psychological thrillers, films based on true events and plenty more.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hmmm either swimming with dolphins and sea lions in the wild at the same time in Australia, witnessing an aboriginal ceremony or living in the Ecuadorian rainforest working with animals!

Teach, Learn, Share

I speak intermediate Spanish and would love to learn more and share travel tips with people. I suppose I could teach you to read music or some Tae Kwon Do if that interests you!

What I Can Share with Hosts

Good conversation, a cold beer and hopefully minimal disturbance or inconvenience for you! I also promise to wear pants at all times.
