Hey, my name is Beau (Pronounced boh).

I'm a single 37 year old queerdo who lives and works in Melbourne, Australia. I work in community care and advocacy for people with HIV in Australia. I've worked on HIV related issues for over a decade in Australia, Indonesia, Malaysia and Papua New Guinea.

I'm also the co-founder and one of the team in Queer Indonesia Archive - a digital archiving project committed to the collection, preservation and celebration of material reflecting the lives and experiences of queer Indonesia.

I'm passionate about community development and engagement, especially with the global Queer/LGBTIQ+/Sexually and Gender diverse communities.

On the side I'm passionate about writing, exploring through my stomach and general sun-soaked adventures.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

Nothing is better than getting to see a city through the eyes of another person - either someone who lives there and loves it or someone who is seeing it for the first time. I think both are essential for staying in love with both the city you live in and the wider world.

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

Always happy to share stories about my work, where I lived or anything going on in the world. I'm happy to be a quiet guest in your home, but equally happy to be an adventure buddy to see your life in the city. Try to always try anything at least once.
