About Me

Me & my personality:
Not just a traveller- an explorer 😆
I am passionate about languages, animals and humans.
Feminist. LGBTQ supporter. I love art, and photography- sadly I couldn’t bring my camera on my trip with me as I didn’t have the space for it but travel photography is a huge hobby of mine. I like portraiture, although I haven’t created much art since I’ve left Aus....
I love history, to read and listen to podcasts.
Passionate anything outdoors and active. I love to exercise and will go crazy if I can’t keep active everyday. Music and theatre is also a massive part of my life!
I am a super bubbly person, I enjoy having in depth conversations and debates and being around people, but also need my alone time and my own company. I can come across perhaps as a bit aloof sometimes but I am very happy go lucky and like to go with the flow with majority of things.... time doesn’t really exist or matter to me! The days are as long as I want them to be and apart from bus/train schedules I never really have to be anywhere for anything which is a wonderful wonderful feeling.

My Philosophy:
I believe that it is extremely important to be independent and that a person must know how to love themselves and their own company and find real happiness in being on their own, but I also believe that the point of human life is to make meaningful connections. And true happiness is spent in the company of others. And I believe these two things are only possible in balance with the other.
All things happen for a reason- positive attitudes positive outcomes!

My brief history:
I left Australia when I was 17 years old, fresh out of high school and moved to Paris on my own where I spent my 18th year studying French language, history and politics.
I learnt so much about myself and people and the world during this year and feel as if I aged half a decade from it! It wised me up a lot to having a more relaxed and positive outlook on life but also to be a totally self sufficient and Independent kickass lil woman 💪🏼
I was supposed to return home to Australia after the year was finished, but decided I wasn’t done with this side of the world, so...
After this I worked in Courchevel in the French Alps as a waitress in a 4 star hotel restaurant - this was a suuper fun but absolutely wild few months 😝 I got pretty good at snowboarding... and after finishing the season in April I embarked on the current trip I am on - 5/6 months solo travel of Europe.

Teach, Learn, Share

would be more than happy to cook a good meal for my host- all allergies and preferences can be accommodated for 😁 I adore cooking so it’s more a gift for me to be able to do it!
Love to sing, can share much of my knowledge of sports, my wide variety of music and passion for the dramatic arts, my small knowledge of palmistry and tarot card readings. I’m young so eager to learn many new different things!
Any conversations ranging from in depth topics to everyday light one - humanities and politics to nail polish and video games, outer space and cosmology to supermarkets and skin routines- I am constantly wanting to expand my mind and learn more about the world.... but it is also nice to share those everyday conversations as well.
I’ve listened to many random podcasts and read a variety of books/ watched documentaries so I am full of random facts 😛

What I Can Share with Hosts

Great conversation, my cooking, drinks, good humour, a giant smile and plenty of interesting tales!
