Hello!

I'm from Melbourne, Australia. What's my biggest passion in life? The answer is easy, travelling. Why? Well the answer to that is much harder.
In a nutshell I get a thrill like no other when I step into a new city just waiting to get explored. I love finding new restaurants, bars, museums, parks and hidden treasures in the cities I visit!

But even more than that, I love meeting people from around the world. I find it so fascinating talking to new people and learning about their culture and life at home. I'm always up for a deep conversation about politics, books, food and which new part of the world I need to discover next. And I've found that the best conversations happen with people you met just a few minutes before while travelling.

Also FYI, I'm a vegetarian foodie.....so the awesome experience of meeting new people is doubled when I'm ripping into a mushroom burger or a bowl of Hummus.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

As I mentioned above, the best parts of travelling are meeting new people and discovering the best parts of cities.

Couchsurfing offers up the best of both worlds. I get to meet new people who happen to be locals and can show me the parts of a city that I could never discover on my own!
