We are Robert and Chiara, a Texan and an Italian travelling around for the past 3 years.
We are based in Australia where we spent 2 years exploring the country in a self converted van.
Our passions vary from cooking and foraging to nature especially everything ocean related like swimming, snorkeling, fishing and freediving.
We like to meet new people and we're always open to learn more about new cultures.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

We like traveling to meet local people and being able to see the things the non-tourists do!
We had an amazing experience Couchsurfing in Japan and we would love to continue doing it around the world.
