About Me

I'm Australian and I have a connection where I grew up, but I love to travel and have done throughout my life. I've lived in Budapest, Hungary and in Santiago, Chile, where I taught English. Now I'm in London, with some time in Montenegro, where I part own and run a hostel.

I'm a photographer and am interested in the intricacies of the human experience, and our relationship with nature. I like to spend a lot of time outdoors in the wilderness, as well as in some of the world's busiest cities.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing has helped me have 4am Ramadan tagine cooking sessions in Taroudant, Morocco, helped me find a car in Rejkyavik, found me places to stay the world over and made me a few friends along the way!

Interests

I develop and print my photos in a darkroom.
I like to cook.
Love camping, sitting round a fire.
Late nights in cities I don't know.
