I'm an Aussie girl who loves freedom, travelling, coffee, nature, chatting, reading, sunshine and all things vintage.

I studied teaching at Uni and backpacked much of Europe and some of Middle East and Asia before settling down to a bit more of a stable existence living in Wollongong and teaching in a beautiful local preschool.
I'm independent, easy going and love trying new things.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

For me travelling is about connections- connections with places and also with people. I don't feel I have ever experienced a place completely until I've met and shared with some of the locals. Its not only way funner but I also learn much more!
