I am a recently-graduated young traveler who has lived in various cities around the world...including London, Paris, Los Angeles, New York and Washington DC. I am about to embark on a work holiday in Sydney, Australia for a year starting in September 2017.

I want to explore Australia, the Asian continent and the Pacific! 2017-2018 is all about travel and adventures for me, so I welcome any tips. This is my first time in that part of the world, I've previously only been to Europe and the US. Where should I go? Where should I avoid? Where should I stay? I'm ready and excited to learn from this community of awesome and open-minded people!

I love cooking (I'll happily cook for my hosts!), swimming, exploring, the beach, stepping out of my comfort zone and meeting new people.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I had one couch surfing experience in 2013 that was an awesome experience and I met some friends that I am still in touch with. I want to meet new people, have local experiences in the places I visit and have an adventure!
