About Me

Hello everyone :)

I have been wandering around the world for most of the last decade or so and my journey has taken me back to my home country of Australia. I am leaving my birthplace of Melbourne and moving up north having been drawn to northern New South Wales and its incredible beauty, diversity and mystery.
Having had various different careers over the years ranging from Fitness Instructor on cruise ships to Tour Guide in South America, I am currently on a quest to find my true life purpose. Still have no idea what it is, but am following my heart and feel myself getting closer!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Always depend on the kindness of strangers: Couchsurfing is one of those wonderful things that just makes the world a warmer and more welcoming place! I was fortunate to host some wonderful people over a 6 months stint that I was living back in Melbourne with my own place and equally fortunate to have had some amazing people host me as well.

Always love meeting new people and making friends from around the world. I am incredibly lucky to have many amazing friends around the globe and love making more!
So very many people have been kind to me in my travels, so I love to give back where I can.

Interests

Always keen to have a chat and learn about others: It never ceases to amaze me how each individual's story can be so similar yet so different! Am always open to learning and hearing about new things and keeping an open mind to any wisdom others are kind enough to share.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Back in 2012-14 I traveled overland from Mexico the Southernmost tip of Argentina in an incredible 16 month journey. Absolutely fell in love with the Latin culture, people and landscapes across the way. Was quite a distance but worth every moment of bumpy bus rides!
