Hi! I'm Trent - born and raised in Perth, Western Australia. I am a former Consultant, full-time traveller, meditation instructor, and charity worker - now I just work a casual retail job in Glasgow. I love slow travelling, hiking, and experiencing other cultures.

I'm vegan, but I'll try to eat anything I'm served so that no food is ever wasted :) I love animals and nature, especially hiking and camping.

I was hosting in Perth for a while, and have been surfing in Europe and Asia for a few years; now I'm hosting in Glasgow!

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

Algo increíble que he hecho

Too many to list, sorry! Living in the Himalayas was pretty incredible and travel in general is amazeballs. Oh and I once walked almost 4000km from The Netherlands to Turkey, which took 5 months and raised enough money to build a women's school in Nepal.

Enseña, aprende, comparte

People always tell me I'm full of all kinds of other 'useless' (or useful?) information - mostly historical, random trivia, and philosophical ideas. I can also teach you how to meditate and cook yummy vegan food.

Qué puedo ofrecer a los anfitriones
