Author – Quinn Askeland

Hi, my name is Quinn.

I love the quote from Saint Augustine “The world is a book and those who do not travel read only one page.”

I’ve spent a lot of my adult life exploring the world and living long term in different countries. After leaving behind my role as a recruitment consultant in the UK, I moved back to Australia with a mission: to help backpackers live the life of their dreams through work and travel.

During my time in Australia, I noticed an absence of reliable information for backpackers alongside really a super helpful jobs board. 

At Jobaroo, we bridge this gap by offering jobs with mapped locations and comprehensive information about everything you need from getting visas, bank accounts and even how to buy a car!

When I’m not working on Jobaroo, you can find me exploring nature in one capacity or another. I love mountain biking, trail running, making or fixing things, and trying to be a good Dad.
