I am an artist currently travelling and working in Indonesia and will travel to Italy to research biodiversity hotspots. I am travelling with my partner Harry, a legendary chicken parmigiana chef, musical creator and delightful dog enthusiast. We are a very relaxed, friendly and excited duo when we come to new places. We look forward to meeting you!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think sharing space with other people is incredible whilst travelling. It allows you to share stories with others from places you have never been whilst sharing meals and experiences - incredible. It is nice not for everything to be about exchanging money for value.

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies
- Anything Monty Python
- Fleabag (its a show but needs to be included for obvious reasons)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have camped a couple of times as a solo traveller around the outback in Western Australia, camping in the swag and the back of my car along the Shark Bay peninsula and through the southwest forests of Pemberton and Walpole.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love to learn about local plants and new recipes. I am currently compiling recipes shared by people into a hand-drawn recipe book! Perhaps we can add your recipe to the book too?

What I Can Share with Hosts

Arting processes including painting, collage and drawing, architectural concepts (riveting), cooking, pottery and gardening! I have done many art and architecture classes with kids and adults, too if you're interested.
