I enjoy meeting new people, discovering new places, and learning new things in general. :)
Plans are great, the unplanned can be even better!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couch surfing has been a great way of meeting some really unique people, which wouldn't have happened without it. Some really fun times had with hosts in far flung parts of the world - thanks! :)

My family had travel guests visiting often growing up, some Israelis, Germans and one Finnish guy. Typically we'd show them unique aspects of Australia, bushwalks or visiting a family sheep farm.

In a way one hasn't understood a place until one understands the people... !
