'a journey is best measured in friends, rather than miles' - Tim Cahill

Hey! i'm anthea :) I'm an energetic and extremely clueless university student from Brisbane, Australia. I love mountains, architecture, history and the ocean! Also a huge fan of travelling (of course) and the people you meet along the way.

A little about my life...
I'm a 19 year old student studying microbiology at university. On my summer break I'm travelling for three months around nepal, then to italy working my way up to norway with a good friend of mine!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

it's a great way to get to avoid the tourist traps of an area, meet locals who share your mindset and save on costs (let's be real i'm a student!)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I spend a lot of time volunteering with animals in australia, specifically marine life in the great barrier reef! My most rewarding experience has been helping a sea turtle lay eggs!

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you how to make delicious simple food that is economical and limiting waste. I would love to learn more about yoga and meditation so if you know anything about that then perfecto! I would also love to learn about whatever city/town/place i am staying!
