About Me

Back packed and volunteered at different places around the world. Love the outdoors. Currently teaching full time on the remote west coast of Tasmania

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I prefer to experience the reality of peoples lives wherever I go which is why I spend so much time volunteering with local organisations and people. I would rather meet locals and learn from them then stay at a hostel and pass through.

I enjoy meeting new people and like my experiences from hitchhiking I think couchsurfing is a great way to meet likeminded people and experience the world.
