HELLO!!!!! I'm Shai and I aim to travel this weird and wonderful world of ours as much as possible with my spare time. I have just finished my journey to becomming a chef and want to eat my way around the world getting experience wherever possible. It’s interesting and my obsession with cooking will only go up haha I have the best family you will ever meet and the most loving group of friends in existence.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

At the moment I am only a surfer as I don't have a house big enough for people to stay but as soon as i am settled somewhere permanently that is fit for comfort in the lounge room there will be a couch for whomever wants it :)

If you need any advice on Melbourne or of my home town of Byron Bay I will be very happy to point you in the right direction. Message me and I may be able to meet up for a drink or 2

I have couch surfed across the entire country of Canada from east to west, America, Japan, half of my month trip to India, my entire 2 weeks in Sri Lanka, Mexico and Guatemala and have had NO bad experiences. In fact they were so memorable that I tell everyone I meet about the people I met by staying on their couch! I would love to at any chance possible continue couch surfing because some of my best travel experiences were with the help of this website. The people on this website thus far have shown so much love and help that it's unbelievable there are so many amazing people out there.
