Hey, my name is Brandon and I’m a 22 year old Australian guy who has a passion for traveling and meeting new people. I am new to this couch surfing stuff which a fellow traveller referred me on to (back in 2023 but only just giving it a proper go now). I have since just completed a lap around the world and am now currently doing a lap around Australia with my partner Helene (F19, in some of my photos), and hoping to explore and meet as many people/places I possibly can before heading off to Canada to work the snow season. I'm up for any and all adventures.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Decided to book a one way ticket to Europe and haven’t looked back since, where I’ve now ended up travelling and volunteering throughout South America with a German girl I met in Italy.

Teach, Learn, Share

Give you insights and stories about my life in Australia, along with all the stories I’ve had in the past 7 months of backpacking Europe and Latin America, along with all the other countries I’ve been before this journey.
