CURRENT MISSION
To see as many Ice Hockey games in Canada as I can!

ABOUT ME
I'm a laid back Aussie kid who craves to travel and learn as much as I can about other cultures.

Over recent years I have worked in advocacy and refugee services. I've been incredibly fortunate to work and tour around the USA and go to Uganda with human rights org "Invisible Children" in 2009. The past 2 or so years I've been working with asylum seekers from Afghanistan, Iran and Iraq assisting them to settle in Australia.

I quit my job in May 2013 and boarded a plane with a 2 year UK working visa in my hand which I didn't really use to it's full capacity due to falling in love with travelling around Europe! I met some of the most incredible and generous people through couch surfing around that continent and truly hope I get to bump into any of them again somewhere else around the world. I returned back to Australia in November 2016 to save up for my next big trip .... CANADA!!! :)

I have a travel blog that occasionally write on here: http://www.megaradnomad.com

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have hosted people at my house and spent about a year couch surfing around friends couches and floors in the USA 09/10.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

i basically couchsurfed all over the USA between 09/10 while on tour with human rights org "Invisible Children". I have hosted a handful of couchsurfers when I've been back at home in Adelaide. I've just returned from over 2.5 years living in and travelling/couchsurfing around Europe.

I absolutely love meeting new people who share similar passions and learning about how they live their life.

教，学，和分享

I can teach you the art of making a Tim-Tam slam - a classic Australian delicacy!

LOVE surfing and you'd be most welcome to tag along when I head out to the beach.

I LOVE delving into culture, not just the touristy stuff. The best times I have experienced in my travels have been when doing what the locals do.

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

I can give a pretty good high five, tell really bad dad jokes and if you're lucky .... maybe cook an Aussie dish! :)
