Every person, every moment and every place has lessons to teach you. There's so many things to experience in this beautiful world and I'm so grateful to get the chance to dive in and immerse myself into travelling. Travelling has taught me that no matter how out of place or disconnected you may feel when you first arrive somewhere you always find your people :)

PHILOSOPHY

"I'm bringing it all back, every last atom, paid in full, and I appreciate the loan" - B

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet all the beautiful people and make connections whilst travelling!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

The time it takes to find someone who seems awesome and write a personal request is so worth it because you really make deep connections and friends! CS gives you the opportunity to make friends around the world that you otherwise would never have met - it's not just about getting free accommodation.

Interests

I'm keen on pursuing that which helps me on my personal evolution. In the last few years my most meaningful experiences have been through permaculture, backpacking trips, natural building, amazonian medicine, transformational festivals, rock climbing, and so many other things.

Volunteering is a great way to meet people and give your time so i try volunteer at every festival I go to and any event that interests me :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

On a caving mission I fell 30 meters down a 176 m hole and lived to tell the tale.

Teach, Learn, Share

I've been hooping for a few years and can teach you some basics and get you moving! I'm fairly knowledgeable about aquaponics and could run you through the set up and cycling of a system.

I'd like to learn more about how we can heal ourselves through food like fermentation, superfoods and herbalism. I'm also not the most confident swimmer and would really like to get on a surf board to push my limits and grow.

I can share with you a joke from my vast pool of terrible puns. I can get a smile every time :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'd love to cook a meal and have good conversation with the good soul that opens their home to me. I respect other peoples spaces and clean up after myself. I can also lend a hand if you have any projects going on - especially in the garden, or a dog that needs walking :)
