Ello! My name is Jake. I'm a 25 year old Australian environmental science student with an interest in permaculture, food, music and having a palaver over tea (or several beers).

I would love to hear from you while I'm in the USA either for a couch or a hang. My doors are always open (when I have a place to offer...) if you end up in Australia :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like to meet locals and travelers alike, learn new and wonderful things from y'all and just to meet friendly/ fun people :)
