Sydney, Australia is home. 🦘🌇

I'm a writer who's working on a book about how people around the world find meaning in life.

I don't have a huge amount of experience with CS, but wanted to see if I can use it to help make connections with people while I'm travelling this year.

Travel, art, culture, writing, photography, food, languages and the outdoors all bring me joy. I just finished walking a section of the Lycian Way, which was fantastic 😍.

When I'm back home I work in education and public policy. I also write about adventure and the outdoors, especially hiking and bikepacking.

If you're curious, I'm at www.matthewcrompton.com

I look forward to meeting you! 🙏🏽

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

It can be hard to meet people on the road that you can have meaningful conversations with. Couchsurfing helps me to connect.
