About Me

I'm a country bloke in his early 20s from Australia. I was working in a large professional services firm as an Auditor for 3 years before I decided to take an extended/permanent break from the corporate world. I spent 5 months last year backpacking solo around South America, and now I've arrived for the first time in Canada for a new experience. I spent September travelling the East and West Coast with my younger brother, then I've been working at the Columbia Ice Fields for a few weeks before they shut for the winter. I'm not in Banff looking to get involved in the adventurous lifestyle Canada is famous for, and experience a true Canadian winter. I love the outdoors, and I'm excited to try my hand at all things adventurous (hiking, skiing, mountaineering, climbing, mountain biking, skating, etc.)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on Couchsurfing to meet the locals, and escape the tourists. I want to be introduced to your lifestyle, what you like to do in your spare time, what interests you, and why you live in Banff.
