About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Hosting a bit this year before a trip to Netherlands, Belgium and Germany in June July.

ABOUT ME

I draw cartoons, am into music, am terrible at learning languages but still i try. I like meeting people from far away. And every now and again i go on biiiiiiiig adventures.

Be kind, rewind.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

The Barn is cautiously opening its doors again to couch surfers. We recently decided to take a break from couchsurfing because we have had some experience where we feel used. Couch surfing used to be for fun weird people who enjoy getting into the culture of a place. We've had some couch surfers who just come and go and see the most boring touristic shit and aren't interested in the real Sydney. Yawn. These people should use airbnb. We are not airbnb.
Also if you have any suspicion that you might have bed bugs do not come here. We had a couch surfer who did this: it cost us 1000 dollars to fix. (It is well and truly fixed now). If you have even the slightest sign of this bug problem politely stay far away.

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Participate by hosting & being hosted.
Note: if you want to stay at the Barn - you have got to be kinda' weird... we prefer musicians, performers, artists, freaks. Not so much office drones who 'want to save money' while draining the world of culture. It's ok if you are both.
