Hello, I’m Bailey from Australia! I’m currently backpacking around the world, with the goal of visiting every country. So far I’ve visited 68 countries across my journey!

Throughout my travels, I’ve found that meeting people has become my most favourite part of any new city or country, and has now become a priority for me. Couchsurfing is a great platform to do exactly that

More recently, Instagram has become my ‘job’ while on the road. If you’re interested, you can find me @backpackwithbailey

I’m not on CS for dating purposes and I am straight (frequently asked questions)

Very slowly and casually learning Russian, but wouldn’t put my level high enough to have a conversation (yet)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet with locals and learn their cultures, hear their stories and experience their lifestyles. I believe this is one of the most important parts of travelling
