About Me

I've been travelling on and off since October 2004, when I left Tasmania and moved to London to travel around the UK and Europe.

I ended up living in London for four years and Hamburg for a year before I returned to Australia, where I lived in Melbourne for three years, in between trips.

I've been lucky enough to see quite a bit of Europe and some of South East Asia, as well as a six-month trip through South America and a four-month trip in Central America. I have also really enjoyed exploring the USA, returning several times since first visiting back in 2013.

When I am back home in Hobart, I am more than happy to meet up with other CouchSurfers for a beer or coffee and I may also be able to host you.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Since joining CouchSurfing in 2008, I have stayed with and met some great people in Serbia, Bulgaria, Romania, Austria, Slovenia, France, Belgium, Germany, Hungary, Lithuania, Singapore, Thailand, Spain, Portugal, Brazil, Argentina, Chile, Bolivia, Ecuador, Colombia, Egypt and India.

I also met quite a few CouchSurfers for coffee/beers when I was back in Australia between December 2009 and June 2012, as well as hosting Dominik from Germany and Sirli from Estonia.

Dominik and I also ended up travelling together for 2 months through Argentina and Chile, almost 3 years after hosting him in Hobart.
