Soul Mates is a 2014 Australian comedy series created by and starring Christiaan Van Vuuren and Nicholas Boshier, co-written by Van Vuuren's brother Connor Van Vuuren, screened on ABC2. It features the same characters, as friends who met in a different era, as Bondi Hipsters (2011).[1][2]

Soul Mates follows the story of a couple of friends who are continually drawn together across the course of human history. In 2014, they are fashion-obsessed hipsters from Bondi Beach. In prehistoric times, they experience all of life's firsts as a couple of cavemen. In 1981 they are two New Zealand secret agents known as the Kiwi Assassins. In the year 2093 they are working in a time travel agency called Ticky Time Tours, tackling time travel conundrums.[3]

Previous online projects by Van Vuuren and Boshier include Bondi Hipsters, Beached Az, Trent from Punchy and The Fully Sick Rapper.[4]
